the Head of Housing Maintenance and Assets and to make a recommendation to
Council on 16 July. Minutes: The Committee met to consider exit costs
associated with the termination of a post in the Estates and Facilities section

reconvened on 9 July at 5.30pm The Committee
considered the re-circulated papers in relation to the Estates and Facilities
review and a further confidential briefing paper from the Head of Human
Resources in relation to termination and pension costs and employment
processes. The Committee asked
that for future reviews where there are proposed termination costs in excess of
£100,000 that the ESOC be convened at an earlier stage in the process. The Head of Human Resources was asked to further
consider the identified issues and to report back to the Committee. Having considered
the matters, the Committee agreed to recommend to Full Council the termination
costs arising from redundancy in the post in the Estates and Facilities Team. The Heads of Housing
Maintenance and Assets and Human Resources were asked to undertake an
information briefing for all Councillors ahead of the Full Council meeting. |
