The Strategic Finance Business Partner submitted a report which sought to update the Committee with a position statement as to the numbers of staff vacancies and interim/agency staff engaged. It was noted that updated figures showed that the November 2017 figures for interim/agency staff totalled 24, a decrease from 39 when the Committee first asked for an update in March 16.  The number of vacancies had also decreased from March16, from 52 down to 41.

The Committee questioned whether the number of vacancies would decrease as part of the efficiency saving plans. The Strategic Finance Business Partner responded that where this is the case, this has been detailed by the Service in sections 3.2.4 -3.2.7.

RESOLVED:

That the report be noted.
