This report seeks approval for key employment and pension arrangements necessary to establish the new Poole Town Council and enable the recruitment of a suitably qualified Town Clerk and Responsible Finance Officer. As a designating body under the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) Regulations 2013, the Town Council may choose whether to participate in the LGPS and must formally resolve to designate eligible posts. Adoption of the National Joint Council (NJC) “Green Book” terms and conditions, together with associated NALC policies, is also recommended to provide a modern, lawful, and sector?standard employment framework.
