Decision details

Council considered a detailed report, presented by the Portfolio Holder for Corporate Governance, which sought Members’ approval for the Council’s Pay Policy Statement 2024/2025.

The Annual Pay Policy Statement 2024/25, set out the Council’s policy on pay for senior managers and employees in accordance with the requirements of Section 38 of the Localism Act 2011 and Supplementary Guidance 2013.

The Pay Policy Statement was presented to Council on an annual basis.  Any amendments to the policy statement, other than minor updates to reflect the 2023/24 pay agreement and 2024/25 pay agreement, would require the approval of Council.  The Annual Pay Policy Statement 2024/25 reflected the current position based on decisions previously taken at Council and was attached as an appendix to the report.

Under the Local Government Transparency Code 2015 additional organisational information was required to be published annually on the Council’s website.  This consisted of third tier organisation charts, senior salaries information, including functional responsibilities, budget amounts and numbers of staff responsible for, together with details of trade union facility time.

Moved by Councillor Duncan McGregor and seconded by Councillor Clive Moesby

RESOLVED that the Annual Pay Policy Statement 2024/25 be approved.
