Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: No

Decisions:

The Council received a report which presented the Pay Policy statement 2020/21, which set out the Authority’s policies on a range of pay matters relating to the workforce, including senior employees (Chief Officers).

 

The main part of the Pay Policy had not changed during the last 12 months.  This was because negotiations for a new pay scale were continuing at a national level but agreement had not yet been reached.  Any increases would be back dated to 1 April 2020 when they had been agreed.  The pay multiple and the gender pay gap had been calculated as at 31 March 2019.

 

The Authority had a statutory duty to publish the Pay Policy Statement following the approval by the full Council.

 

It was moved by Councillor B Pickard and seconded by Councillor J Stirling that:

 

(1) the Pay Policy statement 2020/21 be approved; and

(2) the publication of the Pay Policy be authorised.

 

The Motion, on being put to the meeting, was approved by 20 votes to 0 votes.

Publication date: 02/04/2020

Date of decision: 19/03/2020
