Workplan for the HR and Remuneration Sub-committee

Report: 4
Date: 30 January 2009
By: the Chief Executive

Summary

This report sets out the proposed workplan for this Sub Committee. It is subject to regular review by Members of the Sub Committee as a result of change in Authority priorities, the work of the newly formed Association of Police Authority (APA) People Policy Network.

A. Recommendations

1. That Members agree or amend the workplan at Appendix 1.

B. Supporting information

1. There is a significant amount of work currently taking place around human resource issues at a national, Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) and Metropolitan Police Authority (MPA) level. This Sub Committee will wish to make a significant contribution to these issues and the intention of this workplan is to provide an opportunity to influence and debate the major issues and obligations placed upon it.

2. For the most part, the different mainstream ‘HR’ and senior staff ‘Remuneration’ issues will be considered at different meetings. These are shown separately as ‘HR’ and ‘Remuneration’ in the Appendix, although it is only one Sub Committee and one workplan. In particular, the ‘HR’ meetings will have a focus item on a major area of business within the MPS HR Directorate.

C. Race and equality impact

There are no direct equality and/or diversity implications as this paper is concerned primarily with setting out the future workplan of this Sub Committee.

D. Financial implications

There are no direct financial implications arising from this report.

E. Background papers

None
