Is subject to call in?: No
To continue to place at the disposal of Boston
Borough Council and East Lindsey District Council 2 South Holland
District Council posts, the Programme Delivery Officer and
Programme Delivery Manager via temporary Section 113 Notices from
SHDC to BBC and ELDC.
These postholders currently work across the 3
Council’s whilst in the employment of South Holland District
Council covering large, mainly grant funded, capital projects
across the 3 councils.
The existing temporary Section 113 arrangements require an updated
decision so these arrangements that work well across the
partnership, can continue. A Section 113 agreement allows the
postholders to act as if they are staff of all Councils to work
across the many activities needed for the management of successful
capital projects. These roles are vital to deliver a range of
projects across the partnership, ensure decisions are made timely
and the current partnership wide resourcing of a wide ranging and
complex programme of capital projects can continue.
The work delivered by these postholders is
vital to the continuation of the project delivery and therefore
there are no alternative options available at this time.
