Matters Arising

Maternity, Adoption and Shared Parental Pay

The Director of Human Resources queried the resolution concerning the future provision of a report on the possible central funding of maternity, adoption and shared parental pay and advised that she thought that this would be after one year of monitoring and only if it was found that any one department had suffered adversely.

The Deputy Chairman responded that it would be helpful for members to know what options were available in any event and it was agreed that an update be provided in a report to the February meeting.
