Joint Report of the Town Clerk & Chief Executive and the Chief People Officer.

The committee received a joint report of the Town Clerk and Chief Executive and the Chief People Officer concerning the committee’s Forward Plan.

In response to questions, officers confirmed that social mobility data was already captured in the Corporation’s standard suite of demographic data collection points but that there was a low completion rate on this data point of approximately 5% among staff, noting that this was a newly introduced data point.

It was confirmed that progress in encouraging staff to complete such declarations would be reported back to the committee through updates regarding equality, diversity, and inclusion.
