Decision details

To seek approval for the proposed Test and Trace Discretionary Payments Scheme

(1)  To approve the Local Authority’s Test and Trace Support Payments Discretionary Policy.

(2)  To grant the Director of Service Delivery delegated authority, to implement, and if necessary, amend the Discretionary Policy (in consultation with the Leader). Such delegated authority will include any measures necessary for or incidental to its management and administration

This is a new scheme which needs to be implemented as a matter of urgency and so executive approval for the scheme is being sought from the Leader. The Leader is being asked to authorise the Director of Service Delivery to implement and administer the scheme as there is no existing officer delegation in place.
