Title of decision: Agreement between Wakefield Council, West Yorkshire Combined Authority and the Chief Constable of West Yorkshire for the integrated provision of coroner’s officers and administration support staff and accommodation to coroner’s in the West Yorkshire Eastern Coroner’s Area

Summary: This proposal supports the implementation of organisational changes that will allow the Coronial service within West Yorkshire to provide an improved service to bereaved families.
Specifically, the TUPE transfer of West Yorkshire Police (WYP) Coroner’s Office staff (Eastern Area) into the employment of Wakefield Council.
This transfer will deliver service improvements and efficiency opportunities across the Coronial Service
function in West Yorkshire. This will result from the transfer of WYP staff to the Local Authority, co-location so that staff are working within the same building, and changes to the organisational management structure.
In order to facilitate this transfer of staff it will be necessary for West Yorkshire Police to cover salary costs and to contribute to the one-off costs that will be incurred as the team is physically relocated to the offices of Wakefield Council.

Approved Decision: For West Yorkshire Combined Authority to enter into an agreement with Wakefield Council and the Chief Constable of West Yorkshire regarding the integrated provision of coroner’s officers and administrative support staff and accommodation to coroner’s in the West Yorkshire Eastern Coroner’s Area.

Signed by: Tracy Brabin, Mayor of West Yorkshire
