Description:
Governance is the system, principles and process by which organisations are directed and controlled. The principles underlying corporate governance are based on conducting the business of the Department with integrity and fairness, being transparent with regard to all transactions, making all the necessary disclosures and decisions and complying with all the laws of the land. Good governance encourages better service delivery and improved accountability. Good governance is also integral to the culture and to strategic and operational policies and practices of an organisation. Legislation is a key driver of governance arrangements in Government Departments and there is also a wide variety of authoritative guidance that outlines much of the governance obligations for civil and public service organisations. All employees have an important role to play in committing to good governance in an organisation. Achieving excellence in governance is one of the commitments under the Civil Service Renewal Plan 2014. In response to this commitment, a Corporate Governance Standard for the Civil Service was developed. This Standard requires that Government Departments document and publish their governance arrangements in the form of a Governance Framework. The focus of this Framework is to set out the governance procedures, processes and principles that underpin the work of the Department of Business, Enterprise and Innovation.Corporate name:
