Issue - decisions

(a)       That the Committee notes the Determinations made by the Independent Remuneration Panel for Wales in the draft Annual Report for 2022/23; and

(b)       That the Head of Democratic Services writes to the IRPW on behalf of the

            Committee to endorse the collective view of the Group Leaders as follows:

• It is disappointing that the IRPW have allowed the situation to develop

that such a large increase in Members’ salaries was now necessary; and

• We believe that the increase should not be in one tranche, but

incrementally over the life of the next Council also ensuring that those

increments take into account the levels of inflation prevailing at the time
