North Lanarkshire Update



I am currently studying the documents released by North Lanarkshire Council after the order issued by the Scottish Information Commissioner (SIC).

 The Corporate Management Team (CMT) report runs to 31 pages including 7 appendices.

 So while it will take me some time to get my head around all the detail, the document is already proving to be a treasure trove of information.

 If any readers would like a copy, I can send this on by email although please be warned it makes tortuous reading and contains a number of glaring punctuations mistakes which is really quite remarkable for such a document of such importance.

 The contents are listed below although, quite amazingly, not all of the pages are numbered sequentially which is terribly sloppy and unprofessional if you ask me:

 Corporate Management Team Report (Pages 1 to 7)
Appendix 1 (Page 8) - Overview of pay model
Appendix 2 (Pages 9-26) - Breakdown of proposed costs for pay model NLC5C 
Appendix 3 (Pages ?) - Departmental report for Red and Green circles at Year Zero
Appendix 4 (Page 27) - Details of core/non-core hours
Appendix 5 (Page 28) - Movements in departmental establishments 
Appendix 6 (Pages 29-30) - Employees in Red circles after 3 and 5 years
Appendix 7 (Page 31) - Five options for core/non-core hours

 I will have more to say in the days ahead - so watch this space.

Kentucky Fried Seagull

Here's what HFW has to say on the subjecy -  I think I'll contact Hugh - and ask if he'll join the TAPAS campaign. "Vermin with wings? Chicken of the sea? Or just an opportunity missed?" "First and foremost, before we all go on a mad seagull killing frenzy. In the U.K it is against the law to kill seagulls or interfere with their nests under the countryside and wildlife act. Some Councils are allowed to cull them however, and usually do this by either poisoning or shooting them. How to catch your seagull. Remember this is against the law in the U.K. I don't want the Men in Blue knocking at the door because someone said that Foodimum told them it was okay to catch and eat seagulls. It isn't... P
