Report of the Town Clerk

The Board received a report of the Town Clerk setting out the outstanding actions list and noted the various updates and additions. The forthcoming workplan for Board meetings in 2017 was also noted.

With reference to the action concerning staff terms and conditions, the Head of HR reminded Members that this had originally been added as part of a Corporation-wide review of unsocial hours contracts and had been an element of the Barbican’s intended Service Based Review savings. This review was no longer taking place and commensurate savings were being found elsewhere as previously highlighted to the Board. Accordingly, the action should therefore be removed from the list; however, the Head of HR reassured Members that conversations with Corporate HR continued around pay and reward policies with a view to providing more flexibility in this area in future.

Members’ attention was drawn to the proposed date change for the November Board meeting and the Town Clerk advised that a full list of dates for 2017 and 2018 would be circulated after the meeting.
