Petitions and Public Address

EXEMPT ITEM

 

It is RECOMMENDED that the public be excluded for the duration of the item at GR7 in the Agenda since it is likely that if they were present during the item there would be disclosure of exempt information as defined in Part I of Schedule 12A to the Local Government Act 1972 (as amended) and specified in relation to the respective items in the Agenda and since it is considered that, in all the circumstances of each case, the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosing the information.

 

THE REPORT RELATING TO THE EXEMPT ITEM HAS NOT BEEN MADE PUBLIC AND SHOULD BE REGARDED AS STRICTLY PRIVATE TO MEMBERS AND OFFICERS ENTITLED TO RECEIVE IT. 

7.

Pay Policy and Grading

Report by Head of Human Resources (GR7).

 

The purpose of this report is to inform members of the proposed new pay policy which is scheduled for Council consideration on 20 March 2012 and to provide an update on the current top level structure of the County Council following reduction in senior management numbers in order to meet  required financial savings.

 

The public should be excluded during this item because its discussion in public would be likely to lead to the disclosure to members of the public present of information in the following prescribed categories:

1.                  Information relating to any individual;

2.         Information which is likely to reveal the identity of an individual;

3.         Information relating to the financial or business affairs of any particular person (including the authority holding that information)

 

and since it is considered that, in all the circumstances of the case, the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosing the information, in that such disclosure would infringe the rights of the individual to privacy contrary to the general law and the duty of the authority to respect human rights and to comply with that law and contrary to the authority’s duties as a fair employer.
