(a) That the Chair of Employment Appeals Committee SRA be discontinued.
(b) That the existing provision within the scheme as relates to the Dependent Carer’s Allowance be maintained, save that the upper limit of £42 that may be claimed for the care of dependents who are children within any one week period be removed.
(c) That the recommendations contained within this report be implemented from the day following the date of the Meeting of the Council Meeting at which they are approved.
