Shared Cost AVC (Additional Voluntary Contributions) Scheme procurement

Yes

The contract for the provision of the shared cost AVC scheme for employees in the Local Government Pension Scheme to further save towards their retirement will expire on 2 May 2026. The Authority is looking to re-procure a contract for the continued provision of this scheme.

There are currently 518 employees with salary sacrifice agreements in place for this scheme. The continued offer will ensure current and future employees retain the option of saving towards their retirement on top of their LGPS, while making savings on their tax and National Insurance contributions. The council also achieves savings via employer national insurance savings arising from those participating in the scheme and the reduction on their gross pay.

The decision to be taken relates to procurement of the scheme which has a significant published contract value, with the council paying costs to administer the scheme as a percentage of the value of the salary sacrificed sums. Based on current council costs and trends in increasing employee participation, this will potentially reach and go beyond £500k over the course of the contract of 4 years. Additionally, savings arising from participation in the scheme were £262.5k in 24/25 and are projected to be £340k in 25/26 and follow a similar trend in future years.

This is an in/out spend resulting in the council saving on the participation rather than spending from existing budgets.

Internal, relevant officers as appropriate including staff in Payroll and wider HR teams who support with administering and managing the Shared cost AVC Scheme.

Internal communication as required.

Maltkiln Masterplan Framework

Yes

The DPD, now adopted, will form part of the Development Plan for the Harrogate District and will be used in the determination of planning applications in the area.

Policy NS3 of the Maltkiln Development Plan Document requires that a detailed allocation wide masterplan must be produced for the new settlement in conjunction with the council, local community and other stakeholders and be agreed by the local planning authority.

The draft Masterplan Framework document has been developed in conjunction with the council’s internal specialist officers (together with Maltkiln promotor’s technical team). We have also provided verbal updates to both Management Board and Cabinet Members as the draft framework document has evolved.

We have also consulted with the Local Community Group, technical stakeholders and the wider local community.

On-line Technical Stakeholder briefing session, in-person Local Community Group briefing session, local community drop-in event. For those unable to attend the drop in event, documentation was made available online to provide feedback.

Internally all relevant departments have been consulted and have inputted to the report. Externally, if consent is given to conduct the pilot, the wider community will be consulted on the area over which the powers will be applied. Consultations to date for Long Term Plan for Towns and Pride in Place show the top priority for local people and businesses is to see the condition of the town centre improved the HRSA powers directly support that objective.

For the designation of the HSRA area we will consult through multiple channels utilising our website, social media channels, local stakeholder groups, direct mail and traditional local media channels.
