(Report of Director of Finance and Transformation)
The report advised that Gravesham Borough Council had decided not to proceed with the Revenue and Benefits Shared Service. However, it was noted that the IT digital and transformation plan for the service would continue to be progressed as set out in the Capital Plan (Minute C 17/56 refers).
Following consideration by the Finance, Innovation and Property Advisory Board, the Cabinet Member for Finance, Innovation and Property resolved that:
It be noted that:
(1) at Gravesham Borough Council’s behest the Shared Service for Revenue and Benefits will not be progressed;
(2) existing secondment agreements for the Revenue and Benefits Manager and Principal Revenues Officer will continue as is the current practice;
(3) the planned IT and digital transformation initiatives in respect of this service will continue to be progressed; and
(4) the Capital Plan has been updated accordingly.
