Members received the Pay Policy Statement 2014/15. During discussion on the minimum wage, whilst members were happy that the authority paid above minimum wage, they again expressed concern that contractors with whom the authority worked may not be committed to paying the minimum wage. In response it was reiterated that this would be considered when contracts came up for re-tender.
It was suggested that the Members Allowance Scheme required reviewing with a view to increasing the member’s allowance, but another member felt that as employees were not receiving pay awards, members’ allowances should also remain static.
On the motion of Councillor Lynch, seconded by Councillor Bray, it was
RESOLVED – the HBBC Pay Policy Statement for 2014/15 be approved.
