This report sets out the proposed change in
the delivery of both the Sports Development and School Swimming
Services following formal consultation.
Approval is sought to fully transfer the Sports Development service
from the Council to the Council’s leisure provider, Oldham
Community Leisure (OCL). This will require a TUPE transfer of
staff. The contract management arrangements will be retained within
the Council, undertaken by the Assistant Director of Youth, Leisure
and Communities.
Approval is also sought to second the School Swimming Service to
OCL, this is initially for a 12-month period with quarterly reviews
built in as part of the contract monitoring arrangements
Both changes require a variation to the existing Leisure Management
Contract to allow this to happen.
