Local Government Reform Joint Forum

The Strategic Leadership Board (SLB) at its meeting on 22 May 2009 endorsed the recommendation made by Policy Development Panel C (PDP C) to establish a Local Government Reform Joint Forum (Joint Forum).

The purpose of the Joint Forum will be to facilitate consultation and negotiation between Employer and Employee representatives on a range of Human Resource related issues that are cross sectoral in nature.

The Minister agreed to this recommendation and tasked the Local Government Staff Commission, in accordance with its statutory functions under Section 40. (4) (f) of the Local Government (Northern Ireland) Act 1972, to take forward the establishment and servicing of the Local Government Reform Joint Forum as a matter of urgency.

The inaugural meeting of the Joint Forum took place on 22 July 2009.
