To receive an oral update on the review of the Staffing Committee’s Terms of Reference

The Committee at its meeting on 24 May 2013 had agreed to review its Terms of Reference.  It was reported that since that meeting a Notice of Motion had been submitted to Council on 18 July 2013, which read “The Council requests an immediate review of the Staffing Committee’s terms of reference with a view to widening its remit to encompass matters that are normally entailed in the work of a Staffing Committee such as corporate culture, employee relations and communications, senior appointment, disciplinary matters and management structures.”  The Motion had been referred to the Constitution Committee for consideration.

Members discussed how best to take forward the review of the terms of reference.  It was suggested the Chairman of Staffing Committee speak to the Chairman of the Constitution Committee to discuss how to deal with the review of the Terms of Reference.

RESOLVED: That

(1)       the oral update be received;

(2)       the Chairman of the Staffing Committee contact the Chairman of the Constitution Committee to discuss how to deal with reviewing the Staffing Committee’s Terms of Reference.
