Agenda item

The Commissioner noted that currently the CoLP were operating at a level that cannot be maintained, and that work was being done on assessing  demand, populating the workforce plan, and considering the operating model, including identifying inefficiencies, and assessing supervision levels  and ranks within the CoLP. The challenge would be balancing the budget and medium term financial plan (MTFP), which the CoLP were working closely on with the Chamberlain and a paper will go to the Grand Committee regarding the MTFP in December. The Chamberlain noted that the Grand Committee would want assurance on value for money and a time frame for any gap in funding granted.

Looking forward, the Commissioner noted the capability threat even after the new workforce model has been completed.

The Sub-Committee briefly discussed the apprenticeship levy and how the CoLP is working with the City of London Corporation in this area.
