Summary

Open Council Network is an independent organisation. We report on Bath and North East Somerset and are not the council. About us

The Restructuring Implementation Committee met on Monday 28 September 2026 to discuss a redundancy proposal. The committee unanimously resolved to approve the proposal and grant the Chief Executive delegated authority to implement it.

Redundancy Proposal

The committee considered a report detailing a proposal for a dismissal by reason of voluntary redundancy, including a proposed severance payment. Following a discussion, the committee unanimously passed a resolution to approve the proposal. The Chief Executive was granted delegated authority to take all necessary steps to implement the decision. Due to the personal nature of the information, the report and its appendices were discussed in an exempt session, with the public excluded from this part of the meeting. This decision was made in accordance with Section 100(A)(4) of the Local Government Act 1972, as the disclosure of information relating to individuals was likely to reveal their identity, and the public interest in maintaining confidentiality outweighed the public interest in disclosure. The committee's decision was recorded in the Printed minutes 28th-Sep-2026 11.00 Restructuring Implementation Committee.pdf.
