RESOLVED
THAT: 
 

the report by Human Engine in Appendix 2 is
noted. It is also noted that the recommendations within the
report do not immediately impact the current services provided by
Publica to CBC within the scope of the proposed changes;

the Chief Executive and Corporate Director (Monitoring Officer)
will undertake appropriate due diligence and risk mitigation on the
proposed changes to Publica to support the Leader as shareholder to
take the necessary shareholder decisions in partnership with
Cotswold District Council, Forest of Dean District Council and West
Oxfordshire District Council in implementing the recommendations of
the report.

3.   
in recognition of the fact that the
Human Engine report (Appendix 2) proposes significant changes to
Publica and the services it provides to predominantly Cotswold
District Council (CDC), Forest of Dean District Council
(FoDDC) and West Oxfordshire District
Council (WODC), to mitigate risks and ensure that service provision
is improved and maintained,  responsibility is delegated to the Chief Executive
and the Director for Finance, Assets and Regeneration to undertake
appropriate service reviews of the remaining Publica services
provided to CBC with a view to making recommendations to the Leader
and Cabinet where necessary on the future delivery of those
services.
