Risk Management is a highly topical issue for all government departments and their sponsor bodies and has a vital role to play in promoting and securing value for money in the use of public funds.

The purpose of this publication is to provide a best practice guide tailored to the experiences and needs of public sector bodies in Northern Ireland. The report reflects on local case study examples to illustrate how well risk is being handled in practice and to identify better and more innovative ways of managing risk.
