To consider the proposals for a reduction in staff in the Children and Young People’s directorate support team.

Minutes:

The committee were informed that the Business Support and Development Business unit, of the Children and Young People’s service was in the process of being wound up. As a consequence there would be one fewer Deputy Director post based at Station Rd and other reductions in the overall numbers of senior managers.  In conjunction with the reduction in management, it was proposed to the committee, that there be a further reduction in the directorate support team from 6 members of staff to 3. The deletion of these posts was part of the implementation towards the overall Council savings targets.
