CBF-12 Governance, Compliance & Reporting


Recovery strategies are critical to ensuring that SHINE’s Governance, Compliance, and Reporting functions can resume in a timely and structured manner following any disruption.

These strategies define the processes, resources, and locations required to restore the organisation’s ability to monitor compliance, meet regulatory reporting obligations, maintain governance oversight, review policies, and manage audits and risks.

Each strategy is designed to minimise operational downtime, reduce regulatory and reputational risks, and maintain stakeholder confidence.

The recovery strategies for CBF-12 are tailored to the unique needs of a non-profit organisation providing child and youth services, ensuring regulatory compliance while safeguarding organisational integrity.

The strategies consider Recovery Time Objectives (RTOs), alternative recovery locations, and practical approaches to restore full operational capability.
