Committee details

The role of the Investigating and Disciplinary Committee is to consider allegations against a Statutory Officer (Chief Executive Officer, Section 151 Officer and Monitoring Officer) which may ultimately lead to their dismissal; determine whether further investigation or action is required; determine whether action short of dismissal should be imposed or whether dismissal is recommended.

The Committee shall have a membership of 3 councillors including at least one Executive member and shall not consist of members of the Grievance Committee or Employment and Appeals Committee. Where a councillor has a conflict of interests they may appoint a substitute who is also not a member of the Grievance Committee or Employment and Appeals Committee.
