The Member working group set up to develop the Authority’s
Risk Reduction Plan met on 18th October 2006 to consider the outcomes
from the extensive consultation which was undertaken over the
summer. The consultation period ended on 26th September 2006.
The
SPP department have prepared a report summarising the consultation
exercise, a copy of which is attached for Member’s information.
The Director of Service Policy & Planning and the Head of
ORM took Members through the key outcomes from the responses received.
The working group accepted the report and directed areas where
the draft plan is to be amended prior to it being considered by
the full Authority at today’s meeting. These amendments
are incorporated into the final document Members are asked to
consider today. The development of the plan has been compliant
with all aspects of regulatory guidance and is on time and in
budget.
Should the Authority approve the plan today, it will be
finalised and a detailed implementation plan will
be developed with action points delegated to respective Directors,
Departmental
Heads and County Commanders as appropriate. Members
should note that to comply with WAG guidelines the finalised plan
must be
published on 31st October 2006.
At the JCC meeting
held on 18th October 2006 the Fire Brigades Union
asked the Authority to consider
its position in relation to compulsory
redundancy as a result of any proposals contained within the RRP.
The Authority
has previously
given a commitment to no enforced redundancy
in previous risk management plans.
Members are asked to consider
if they wish to
reaffirm this previous commitment.
The
Head of ORM
will give a detailed presentation
to Members on the consultation summary report
and the areas of change
in the final plan agreed by the Member working group on 18th October
2006.
