The Personnel Board is scheduled to consider an appeal against dismissal. The meeting will also address any other confidential or exempt items that the Chair deems urgent.
Appeal Against Dismissal
The board is scheduled to review an appeal against dismissal. The relevant documentation for this item is contained within pages 5 to 68 of the public reports pack.
The meeting is scheduled to take place in the Council Chamber at the Town Hall, Barking, with a pre-meeting for councillors at 10:30 am and the main meeting commencing at 11:00 am. The members of the Personnel Board are Cllr Regina Rahman (Chair), Cllr Ingrid Robinson (Deputy Chair), and Cllr Ben Suter. The contact officer for the meeting is John Dawe, who can be reached at 020 8227 2135 or via email at john.dawe@lbbd.gov.uk. The date of publication for the meeting documents was 8 September 2026.
The agenda indicates that the board will consider whether to exclude the public and press from the remainder of the meeting due to the nature of the business to be transacted. This is in line with the Local Government Act 1972, which allows for the exclusion of the public and press when confidential or sensitive information is to be discussed. The items scheduled for private business relate to individual members of staff and are exempt from publication under paragraph 1 of Part 1 of Schedule 12A of the Act.
