Decision:

That the report be noted.

Minutes:

The Corporate Finance Manager presented the supplementary financial information to accompany the draft Statement of Accounts 2021/22 as required by the Notice of Motion approved by the Council in 2013.

 

In response to a question from Allan Rainford, the Chief Officer (Governance) provided clarification on the process for authorising the appointment of interim temporary staff and consultants.

 

The Chair asked about the increase in spend for temporary staff and comparison with other councils.  Officers suggested that nationwide recruitment and retention issues could be the main factor.  It was agreed that a response would be sought from the Corporate Manager (People and Organisational Development) and emailed to the Committee.

 

The recommendation was moved by Councillor Bernie Attridge and seconded by Reverend Brian Harvey.

 

RESOLVED:

 

That the report be noted.
