The Restructuring Implementation Committee met on Wednesday 20 May 2026 to discuss a voluntary redundancy case. The committee unanimously approved the proposal for a voluntary redundancy and the consequential severance payment, granting the Chief Executive delegated authority to implement the decision.

Voluntary Redundancy Case

The committee considered a report concerning a voluntary redundancy case, which included a proposed total severance payment. Following the consideration of this report, the committee unanimously resolved to approve the proposal. The Chief Executive was granted delegated authority to take all necessary steps to implement this decision. The report and its appendix were withheld from public publication due to the likely disclosure of exempt information relating to individuals, in accordance with the Local Government Act 1972 and the Data Protection Act 2018. The public interest test concluded that withholding this information outweighed the public interest in disclosure to protect personal data and prevent potential legal action against the Council.
