Purpose

 

To advise the Executive of the Urgent Delegated Officer Decision taken by the Chief Executive – The Establishment of an Environmental Health (Compliance) Officer – Streetscene.

 

Reason for Decision

 

The Executive was advised that the introduction of the NHS Test and Trace system was expected to result in additional pressure to the Council’s Environmental Health team.  Whilst details of the implications were still unclear, it was anticipated that the team would be required to work with Public Health Authorities on the local outbreak management aspect of  the new service to manage local COVID-19 outbreaks.  The Executive was also advised that the Council must secure the resource quickly in order to ensure that it was better placed to meet the Government’s requirements.

 

Decision

 

The Executive noted the urgent decision of the Chief Executive to establish the temporary position of Environmental Health (Compliance) Officer for a maximum of 12 months within the Streetscene unit.
