Introduction

This Charter governs the operation of the Risk and Safety Sub-Committee of the Brisbane North Junior Cricket Association (BNJCA).  This Charter should be read in conjunction with the BNJCA Constitution.  To the extent that this Charter does not expressly provide, the provisions of the constitution will apply to this sub-committee.

The operation of BNJCA includes activities and the use of facilities and equipment  that inherently carry elements of risk.  The Risk and Safety Sub-Committee is responsible for the management of risk within the remit of the services provided by BNCJA.

Objectives

The objectives of the Risk and Safety Sub-Committee are to:

  • assess the threats and risks that may impact people, property or reputation;
  • treat risk in line with the risk appetite defined in the Risk and Safety Policy; and
  • maintain the Risk and Safety Policy.

Review

The Management Committee will be the arbiter for interpretation and/or clarification of this sub-committee Charter.

Omissions or errors should be brought to the attention of the Management Committee.

This policy is subject to regular review by the Management Committee and will be amended (as appropriate).  Acceptance of a new release of the charter will be supported by a motion from a Management Committee meeting.

Inconsistency with the Association’s Constitution

To the extent there is any inconsistency between this charter and the BNJCA Constitution, the Constitution will prevail.

Lifespan

This is a standing committee, the membership of which is reviewed after each annual general meeting of the association.

Currency

This charter is current from the published date at the beginning of this document.

This charter remains current until superseded by another Risk and Safety Sub-Committee Charter with a later date of currency.
