Community Safety Team - Proposed Restructure (Reason: LGA 1972 Sch 12A Para 1 - Information relating to an individual) |
Consideration was given to the report of the Chief Executive regarding a restructuring of the Council's Community Safety Team to reflect its recent co-location with Police staff within the Community Safety Unit and to address resilience issues relating to Anti-Social Behaviour. It was noted that the proposed reduction in area-based grant for community safety along with the wider Comprehensive Spending Review due in the autumn created funding uncertainties across all Council services. It was therefore recommended that implementation of the proposed restructuring proposals be deferred until these issues had become clearer. RECOMMENDED: That (1) the decision taken to extend the hours of Post DC0102 (Safer and Stronger Communities Manager) from 30 to 37 hours be endorsed; (2) the proposed changes to the structure of the Community Safety Team, as set out in the report, be approved in principle; and (3) the implementation of the revised structure be deferred pending the outcome of the Comprehensive Spending Review. *Referred to Council |
