Report of the Chamberlain.

Members considered a report of the Chamberlain on the Supplier Health and Safety Appraisals.  

Members noted that this report was before the Committee as there would be cost implications for some suppliers; there was, however, a general agreement that, as this decision sought an incremental and not a fundamental change in policy, officers should consider an amendment to their Scheme of Delegation, to avoid the need for taking this and similar reports to Committees. 

RESOLVED – that the Safety Schemes in Procurement Accreditation be approved as a requirement for suppliers delivering goods, works and service contracts that have health and safety implications.
