The Appointments Sub-Committee met on Monday 20 May 2024 to consider a key appointment. The meeting's agenda included noting changes to membership and receiving declarations of interest. The primary item for discussion was the appointment to the post of Director of Human Resources and Organisational Development.

Appointment to Director of Human Resources and Organisational Development

The committee was scheduled to consider the appointment of a new Director of Human Resources and Organisational Development. The report pack provided to the committee members contained information on this appointment, with the full details of the report being restricted from public view. The agenda indicated that this item would be discussed in Part 2 of the meeting, meaning the public and press would be excluded. This exclusion was recommended under Section 100(A)(4) and Part 1 of Schedule 12A to the Local Government Act 1972, on the grounds that the discussion would likely involve the disclosure of exempt information. The report pack stated that the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighed the public interest in disclosing the information. The report was prepared by Stuart Love, Chief Executive, and dated 17 May 2024.

The agenda for the meeting can be found in the Agenda frontsheet 20th-May-2024 09.30 Appointments Sub-Committee. Further details were available in the Public reports pack 20th-May-2024 09.30 Appointments Sub-Committee.
