Before commencing item number 9 the Chair asked if any members present wished to discuss individual officer terms, which would require the officers concerned to leave the room. No such requests were made, and the discussion proceeded.

The Council reviewed the amended pay policy statement, which included officer pay bandings and a commitment to the living wage. It was noted that if approved, the statement would be published on the Council website.
A question was raised about pensions, and officers confirmed that pension details could be included in future statements.
The Chair then moved to the vote on the Council’s Pay Policy Statement for 2025/6 .The resolution was proposed by Councillor Joe Harris and seconded by Councillor Mike Evemy.
