Website and telephone payments Sunday 19 May
Our website and telephone payment systems are unavailable between 9am and 2pm on Sunday 19 May. You will not be able to pay for any council services on our website or over the phone during this time.
Equality Impact Assessments (EIAs) are public documents. EIAs accompanying reports going to County Councillors for decisions are published with the committee papers on our website and are available in hard copy at the relevant meeting. To help people to find completed EIAs we also publish them in the Equality and Diversity section of our website. This will help people to see for themselves how we have paid due regard in order to meet statutory requirements.

Officer(s) carrying out screening |
Anne-Louise Arkle (Sponsor) Rebecca Barber (PM) |
What are you proposing to do? |
A new overarching NYC intranet holding core corporate and transformed content, which directs employees to their original District or County sites for service or non-transformed information. The new intranet platform will be built in accordance with accessibility guidance and will be tested prior to go live and at regular intervals once live. Create a new intranet on Sharepoint Online through a phased approach:
|
Why are you proposing this? What are the desired outcomes? |
Single front door to corporate and Day 1 must have information for all staff required. Platform may change (Sharepoint) but staff access points will be as-is. Staff will also be able to access non-transformed information on existing districts sites where applicable |
Does the proposal involve a significant commitment or removal of resources? Please give details. |
No |

Will the proposal have a significant effect on how other organisations operate? (e.g. partners, funding criteria, etc.). Do any of these organisations support people with protected characteristics? Please explain why you have reached this conclusion. |
No. The staff of the new unitary authority will need a single access point to transformed corporate information from Day 3. Non-transformed and service info will remain as-is on district intranet platforms with direct links from new intranet platform for district staff. |
