Issue - meetings

The Council noted that the Joint Appointments Committee (JAC) had met on Monday 5 December 2022 to make a recommendation to the full Council meetings of both Guildford and Waverley on the appointment to the post of Joint Executive Head of Legal & Democratic Services and Monitoring Officer, following the final interviews of the short-listed candidates.

Although the JAC had concluded the process and agreed a recommendation in respect of the appointment, councillors acknowledged that there had been insufficient time for a conditional offer to be made to, and accepted by, the successful candidate to enable the Council to formally ratify the JAC’s recommendation at this meeting.

Accordingly, the Council

RESOLVED: That this matter be deferred to an extraordinary meeting of the Council to be held on Tuesday 3 January 2023 at 7pm.
