REMUNERATION PROCESS
|
Marlene Skelton |
|
|
Business Services Manager |
15 November 2006 |
Both Councillors and
Community Board members will in January and February be required to consider
options in relation to the information released by the Remuneration Authority.
The expense policy,
which is to be presented to the Remuneration Authority at the same time, must
also be reviewed. As budget for supporting this policy comes from outside the
pool set by the Remuneration Authority, consideration of this can begin in
November/December.
In 2006/2007 the
increase in the pool was such that it allowed the Gulf Islands Boards to be
brought into parity with the Isthmus Boards. The Remuneration Working Party
were satisfied at that stage that the correct relativities had been achieved for
all categories of elected representative and that those relativities would be
used until the end of the term. The application of the pool increase granted
for 2007/2008 would then become an automatic process.
In order to
facilitate this process, (Boards do not have scheduled meetings in
December/January) it is recommended that each Board appoint a working party to
progressively consider information as it comes to hand and to work with the
Business Support Manager to ensure Board opinion is available to the
Remuneration Working Party.
