-Members were advised that the “National Living Wage” is the re-branded National Minimum Wage and is not the “Real Living Wage”. Members were advised that the option outlined at 5.2 reflected this consideration - as employers are legally required to pay the National Living Wage.
Further to questions, Members expressed preference that the reference to the National Living Wage should be included in the Contract Standing Orders as per the recommendations made by the Constitutional Review Working Party.
It was proposed by Councillor Johnston, seconded by Councillor Jaye-Jones and agreed:
“5.1 – Standards Committee endorse the proposed changes and content of CSOs to include all CRWP recommended amendments and make recommendation to Full Council.” |
