20201126 NEAC Traineeship Specification - Appendix A

20201126 NEAC List of Streets - Appendix B

At this point in the meeting Councillor Ennis took the Chair due to a declaration of non-pecuniary interest from Councillor Hayward in this item.  Councillor Hayward removed himself from the meeting and was not involved in any discussions on the subject.

The Area Council Manager outlined the proposed North East Area Council ‘s specification for the Environmental Education Community Traineeship commission, explaining that the Environmental Steering Group had met to consider the specification for the Trainees, with a view to giving as many young people as possible a chance to get work experience in communities through working with the Environment Team.  The first recruits should be in post by the beginning of the next financial year, April 2021.  Members were reassured that despite the possible implications of leaving Europe in 2021, due process will continue until any new legislation is in place.

RESOLVED that

(i)            the North East Area Council approve the specification for the

Environmental Education Community Traineeship commission, and

(ii)          that the contract price shall not exceed £223,000 per annum.
