Meeting: 23/09/2024 - Senedd Commission (Item 6)

Independent Advisors

Supporting documents:

  • Restricted enclosure 2

Minutes:

Commissioners considered information about the contractual position of the Commission’s current Independent Advisers. They agreed to offer an extension to the existing contract of Aled Eurig until 26 November 2026. This would provide consistency of the chairs of the two advisory committees over the period of transition to the Seventh Senedd.

They agreed to consider the requirements of a recruitment exercise for the next cohort of Independent Advisers, and the proposed approach to that exercise, which includes continuing to stagger appointments, in Spring ’25. 

 


Meeting: 19/03/2018 - Senedd Commission (Item 2)

Appointment of new Independent Advisers to the Commission

Supporting documents:

  • Restricted enclosure 5

Minutes:

Commissioners considered proposals for the recruitment and selection of a new cohort of Independent Advisers in 2018 and 2019, in preparation for the end of the current arrangements.

 

The Commission’s Independent Advisors act in a non-executive and non-political capacity, providing advice and constructive challenge to Commissioners and senior management on many aspects of the Commission’s business. Three Independent Advisors, along with one Commissioner make up ACARAC while the Commission’s Remuneration Committee is also made up of three Advisors.

 

Commissioners agreed to the recruitment proposals, with the recruitment and selection exercise to be managed internally whilst making use of an executive search agency to identify candidates to a long-list stage.
