to the Officer Employment Procedure Rules in Part 4 of the
Constitution, to:
·
consider and make recommendations to the
Council on all matters relating to the appointment of the Chief
Executive and the dismissal of the Chief Executive, Monitoring
Officer and Chief Finance Officer;
·

It may establish
such Sub-Committees as appropriate to undertake recruitment and to
hear individual matters, which may include authority to make
appointments and other decisions, and authority to make
recommendations direct to the Council.
As a lot of the
work deals with individual cases, meetings may not be open to
members of the public.
