RESOLVED that the employment contract notice periods, as detailed in the report, be agreed.
The Cabinet Member considered a report detailing the appropriate contractual notice periods for the Council’s workforce, with relevance to seniority in the organisation and accounting for the recruitment challenges in the “harder to recruit” professional occupational groups. The proposal will tier the contractual notice periods according to seniority (identified by grade), as follows: Grade A-H – 1 month (existing T&C’s) Grade I – O – 3 months (new for grade I-K) Chief Officers - 3 months (existing T&C’s) The proposal will bring the Authority in line with many other Welsh local authorities and Hywel Dda. Having more alignment to other local authorities in this regard will minimise pressure during turnover periods in the workforce and support timely employee transfers. The recognised Trade Unions will be consulted. RESOLVED that the employment contract notice periods, as detailed in the report, be agreed.

RESOLVED that: 4.1 the level of covert surveillance activity undertaken by the Council in 2023 be noted. 4.2 the Councils RIPA procedures for 2023, as detailed in the report, be approved.
The Cabinet Member considered a report noting the level of covert surveillance activity undertaken by the Council in 2023. The Cabinet Member noted that the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act (RIPA) provides a legal framework by which the Council can seek authorisation to carry out covert surveillance in certain limited circumstances. The Legal Services Manager explained that whilst to date the Authority had not used its powers under the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act to acquire communications data, there had been 8 occasions where an Investigating Officer had sought to do so but were advised that it was not necessary and advice was given accordingly. It was noted that key officers received refresher training in 2022. The Cabinet Member was informed of one change to the procedures, where Sue Watts’ replacement as an authorising officer was Mr Jonathan Morgan, Head of Communities. Training for Mr Morgan will be provided in February. RESOLVED that: 4.1 the level of covert surveillance activity undertaken by the Council in 2023 be noted. 4.2 the Councils RIPA procedures for 2023, as detailed in the report, be approved.
Rhaid i gynghorwyr ddweud pan fydd ganddyn nhw gysylltiad personol â rhywbeth sy'n cael ei drafod, fel swydd, eiddo neu aelod o'r teulu. Mae buddiant sy'n rhagfarnu yn ddigon cryf i'r cynghorydd adael yr ystafell fel arfer a pheidio â chymryd rhan.
Caiff datganiadau eu darllen o'r cofnodion unwaith y byddan nhw wedi'u cyhoeddi.
Yn rhestru cynghorwyr presennol y cyngor yn unig. Nid yw aelodau cyfetholedig, swyddogion a chyn-gynghorwyr yn cael eu dangos.
