The Council currently exercises its discretion to award
compensatory added years on the grounds of redundancy or efficiency
under the Local Government (Early Termination of
Employment)(Discretionary Compensation)(England and
Wales)Regulations 2000. Draft regulations propose the removal of
this discretion from 1st October 2006. They allow local government
employers the discretion to set up a severance scheme that pays a
maximum 104 weeks’ pay. This report proposes a contingent
severance scheme for Council employees (other than employees
working in schools maintained by the Council and teachers employed
in units other than schools) should the draft regulations be
enforced on the aforementioned date or some later date.Related reports
