Agenda item

The Committee considered a report of the Occupational Health and Safety Manager which provided an update on the Council’s Health, Safety and Wellbeing (HSW) performance for Quarter one 2020/21 (for copy see file of minutes).

The Occupational Health and Safety Manager confirmed that the data covered was from a period which had been impacted by Covid 19.

C Robinson, independent member, referred to the recent lockdown measures across the region which were supported by the Local Authority and asked whether there was anything that could be done to support lifting the restrictions.  The Occupational Health and Safety Manager confirmed that the arrangements were discussed regularly by Director of Public Health, CMT and Central Government, with consideration given to transmission and infection rates to determine the best course of action.

Councillor Robinson referred to a web link that Members were sent regularly in order to access up to date information and suggested that he be given access to this information.

Resolved:

That the report be agreed.
