Decision details

The Chairman confirmed the appointment of Tom McCabe and John Weeks. The Chief Executive would start on 6 October 2008 and this would enable the top tier to start working together on structures and staffing.

The unions asked about the timescales for appointments to the next tier down and that the Cheshire East make a decision on the location of services as soon as possible.

The Chairman responded that the two new Strategic Directors would be looking at the next tiers and would want to talk to the trade unions . Until structures were developed, and the most efficient and effective basis for delivering services were identified it was not possible to finalise locations.
