  16. Top 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.
