Report of the Interim Director of Resources

Presented by the Corporate Portfolio Holder

The Corporate Portfolio Holder presented the report to Members. He advised Members that due to the length of time that the contracts would awarded for, the value would require Cabinet approval. He asked to be engaged in the contract and reviews relating to agency staff as that was one of the authority’s biggest expenses.

It was moved by Councillor N J Rushton, seconded by Councillor A V Smith and

RESOLVED THAT:

Authority to award the contracts for (1) workwear, PPE and safety footwear, (2) cleaning consumables, (3) water and (4) agency staff be delegated to the Interim Director of Resources in consultation with the Corporate Portfolio Holder.

Reason for decision: The level of expenditure on this contract exceeds the authority threshold in the Scheme of Delegation.
