Appointment of an External Advisor
The Council has a strong HR team and has no need to call on extensive external support for the review of pay and remuneration. However, it would be helpful to have expert advice to the remuneration committee, at least in the early stages of its work and to have access to advice and challenge as options are developed and draft policies emerge. Officers seek the agreement of the Committee to progress the appointment of an individual from the Hay Group to provide expert advice.
Decision:
Agreed recommendation
Minutes:
The Committee were advised that whilst the Council has a strong HR team with no need to call on extensive external support for the review of pay and remuneration, it would be helpful to have expert advice to the Remuneration Committee, at least in the early stages of its work and to have access to advice and challenge as options are developed and draft policies emerge.
RESOLVED: to agree that officers progress the appointment of an individual from the Hay Group to provide expert advice.
