This item was considered at the carry over meeting on 23 February 2023

 

 

The Committee considered a report from the Chief Executive and the Group Head of Governance that outlined the Terms of Reference for a Corporate Establishment Review that had been requested at a previous meeting of this Committee.

 

The Committee were advised that the Terms of Reference was circulated to  Group Leaders and the report takes into account all the feedback received.

 

The Chief Executive advised that this review should take no more than six months to complete using existing staffing resource within the Council but if some external assistance could be brought in to assist Human Resources this would be reduced to three months.

 

The Committee requested that it be made clearer in the report that the reason for this review was to ensure that the Council was being run as efficiently as possible.

 

The Committee resolved to agree:

 

1.    The Terms of Reference for the Corporate Establishment Review’

2.    Delegation of any expenditure to the Chair and Vice-Chair of the Corporate Policy & Resources Committee; and

3.    To secure through a procurement process additional HR capacity resource to accelerate the Corporate Establishment Review.
