(Report of the Chief Legal Officer)
Minutes:
The Chief Legal Officer submitted a report to appoint two Independent Persons to assist the standards process and any disciplinary hearing against any of the statutory officers.
Under rule 13.3 of the council’s constitution, the recommendations of the report were agreed without being called for debate.
RESOLVED that John Baker and Amanda McIntyre be appointed as Independent Persons to assist with duties of Independent Persons from 1 November 2017 to 31 October 2022
The reason for this decision was:
The Localism Act 2011 requires the council to appoint at least one Independent Person to assist with the standards process. Further, changes in employment legislation requires an Independent Person to be involved in any disciplinary action against any of the three statutory officers, those being the Head of Paid Service, the Chief Finance Officer and the Monitoring Officer.
