The Committee considered a report that provided an update in respect of the arrangements for the performance review and target setting processes for the Head of Paid Service as required in the Council’s Constitution.  An extract from the Council’s Constitution that set out the Personnel Committee’s Terms of Reference was attached to the report at Appendix A.

The report stated that the Leader of the Council was responsible for setting performance targets for the Head of Paid Service each year.  These performance targets were regularly reviewed, and the Leader held regular performance discussions with the Head of Paid Service to actively manage on going performance.  If any development was required, this would also be discussed as part of these ongoing discussions.

Resolved:    That the performance review arrangements for the Head of Paid Service be noted.
