Terms and Conditions

For appointees to the Planning Committee who are not already members of the OPDC Board, the Mayor of London will make appointments to the OPDC Planning Committee. Shortlisted applicants will be interviewed by a selection panel that will include the Chair of the Planning Committee, an OPDC Officer and a representative from Human Resources. The appointment will  be made, based on the    recommendation of  the Panel, by OPDC’s Chair – subject to consent from the Mayor of London.

The GLA promotes an equal opportunities policy. Appointments are made on merit, following a fair and transparent process, and these appointments are governed by Nolan principles and the Mayor of London’s protocol on appointments.

Managing Conflicts of Interest

Candidates should state any potential for conflicts of interest in their application, and this will be explored with short-listed candidates at interview. This includes details of business, financial or other interests or any personal connections, memberships or associations which, if you are appointed to the OPDC Planning Committee, could be misconstrued or cause embarrassment to the Mayor of London or the OPDC.

Eligibility

Applications are welcomed regardless of gender, age, marital status, disability, religion, ethnic origin, political opinion, sexual orientation or whether or not you have dependents.

Time Commitment

The time commitment for this appointment is expected to be approximately one meeting of the Planning Committee per month and one pre-briefing meeting per month, plus additional time as required, including site visits, committee member training and induction. Currently the briefings are taking place at 4pm the week before Planning Committee with the Planning committee starting at 4.30 pm and all of these are taking place virtually. This is currently under review.

Location of Meetings

Planning Committee meetings are currently taking place virtually and when they take place in person again we will be reviewing their location given the GLA is moving out of the current City Hall (where physical meetings previously took place).

Term of Appointment

Planning Committee Members are appointed for a term of up to four years, at the Mayor’s discretion. Members usually serve not more than two terms.

Remuneration

Remuneration for Planning Committee Members is £2,000 pa in line with existing OPDC Planning Committee Members.

Expenses

Planning Committee Members will receive legitimate expenses, in line with the Corporation’s Expenses & Benefits Framework.

Start Date

The Appointees are expected to be available to take up their role ideally in June 2021 but certainly by July 2021. The Planning Committee dates that are currently planned for the rest of the year are: Thursday 3 June, Thursday 15 July, Thursday 9 September, Thursday 14 October, Thursday 11 November, Thursday 16 December

There will be the need to attend a briefing session in advance of your first meeting.
