To consider an extension to these two shared services.

The Joint Committee considered a report which provided an update on activity related to transitional shared services.  The report also outlined the reasons for a proposed extension to the sharing arrangements for two services; namely, Drug and Alcohol Action Team and Archaeological Planning and Advisory Service.

The proposed changes for these services had been agreed with operational managers from both Councils and the Shared Service managers in accordance with the general shared service governance.  The changes would allow for the transition to alternative service delivery arrangements which could not be achieved by 31^st March 2010.

RESOLVED:

That the legal sharing arrangements of the following services be extended as indicated –

(a)               Drug and Alcohol Action Team – to 30^th April 2010;

(b)               Archaeological Planning and Advisory Service – to 30^th June 2010
