Decision details

(Exempt information as defined in Paragraph 3 of Part 1 of Schedule 12A to the Local Government Act, 1972.  It was considered that in all the circumstances of the case the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighed the public interests in disclosing the information).

·  the outcome of gathering market intelligence; and

·  a proposed approach to the recruitment and assessment process and timetable.

Members welcomed the information provided by Penna.  The Committee discussed the information and determined the recruitment arrangements for each position.

Resolved:  That the recruitment arrangements including the job description and person specification for the positions of Chief Executive and Executive Director of Education and Children's Services, as determined at the meeting, be approved.
