The Personnel Committee is made up of the Leader of the Council, the other nine Members of the Executive, the Assistant Executive Member (Finance and Human Resources), and the Leader of the Opposition.

Amongst its responsibilities, the Personnel Committee considers department staffing and organisational reviews; determines collective and corporate terms and conditions of staff and ‘market rate’ supplements. The Committee also determines the assignment and re-grading of certain posts and policies relating to local government pensions.

The Council is concerned to ensure that its meetings are as open as possible and confidential business is kept to the strict minimum. When confidential items are involved these are considered at the end of the meeting at which point members of the public are asked to leave.

The Council welcomes the filming, recording, public broadcast and use of social media to report on the Committee’s meetings by members of the public.

Agenda, reports and minutes of all council committees can be found on the Council’s website www.manchester.gov.uk
