The Appeals and Complaints Sub-Committee is scheduled to consider a grievance appeal from Children and Young People's Services. The meeting will also address any resolutions regarding the exclusion of the public during discussions of exempt information.

Grievance Appeal from Children and Young People's Services

The primary item scheduled for discussion is a grievance appeal originating from the Children and Young People's Services department. The report pack indicates that the sub-committee will review the Appeal Hearing Procedure, the Appellant's Statement of Case, and the Hearing Officer's Statement of Case. These documents, which are considered exempt or confidential information, will be examined to inform the sub-committee's consideration of the appeal. The Local Government Act 1972¹ allows for such information to be discussed in private sessions.

The sub-committee members for this meeting are Councillor Louise Penders, Councillor Stephen Bowron, and Councillor Eric Mavin. The Director of Legal and Democratic Services, Helen Bradley, has prepared the documentation for the meeting, with contact for enquiries being Kirsty Charlton.
