The Executive has considered proposals previously considered by the Executive in September 2011 as part of the 2012/13 Draft Budget, which aimed to merge two separate functions into an integrated structure. This proposed the reduction of the number of management and officer posts, with the creation of a more streamlined approach to manage the quality and compliance in social care settings. Agreement was now sought to implement the quality management re-structure and remodelling of the service following completion of the 90 day consultation period on 27 February 2012.
The Executive has:-
(1) Approved the implementation of the changes to the quality management structure and remodelling of the service; following completion of the 90 day consultation period.
(2) Requested the Corporate Director to People to provide all members of the Council with details of the quality outcome measures together with contact details for members of the new team following the selection process being completed.
