Report CSD19037
At its meeting on 7th February 2019, the Executive, Resources and Contracts (ERC) PDS Committee considered a report on expenditure on consultants across all Council departments for both revenue and capital budgets. The ERC PDS Committee referred the report to all the Council’s PDS Committees for detailed scrutiny.
Members sought and received reassurance that processes were in place and guidance issued to managers to ensure that there would be no tax and national insurance liability for the use of consultants going forward.
The Committee noted that there had been a requirement for consultants to conduct independent investigations into certain complaints concerning Adult Social Care.
RESOLVED: That the report be noted.
