Unless marked thus * all items stand delegated.

The Sub-Committee resolved under Section 50(C)(4) of the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1973 that the public be excluded from the meeting for the undernoted item of business on the grounds that it involved the likely disclosure of exempt information as defined in paragraph 1 of Part I of Schedule 7(A) of the Act.

SOCIAL WORK DEPARTMENT - REGRADING APPEAL (PA27)

It was reported that an appeal had been submitted from an employee in the Social Work Department in respect of an application for regrading.

The Sub-Committee heard the Appellant and her representative and thereafter the Council's representative and witness.

After questions had been put and answers given by both parties to each other and the witness, and by members of the Sub-Committee, the parties withdrew.

Thereafter, following careful consideration of all the information, the Sub-Committee agreed that the grounds of the appeal had not been substantiated and that the appeal be not upheld.
