Decision:

(During the consideration of this item, Members discussed matters that necessitated the disclosure of exempt information. It was therefore agreed to move to exclude the press and public prior to any debate on the grounds that information would be revealed relating to an individual or which was likely to reveal the identity of an individual, the business affairs of the authority and contemplated consultations or negotiations in connection with labour relations matters between the authority and employees of the authority, disclosure of which was not considered to be in the public’s best interests.)

Minutes:

A report was received that set out the business case for a shared CCTV and Lifeline service for Redditch Borough and Bromsgrove District Councils.

 

This had previously been identified as a medium term opportunity. There was the requirement for capital investment to establish a shared service at one site and this would in part be met through savings, including salaries. It was anticipated that there would be human resources implications in establishing a single unit based in Redditch. However, Members were reassured that the existing accommodation in Redditch was sufficient for the shared service.
