Full Disclosure - 8 March 2023

The London Borough of Richmond upon Thames and Wandsworth Council entered into a shared staffing arrangement on 1 October 2016. For further details about this arrangement please see: http://www.richmond.gov.uk/wandsworth. Under the shared staffing arrangement all staff are jointly employed by both Councils. Therefore, unless indicated otherwise, where a response refers to numbers of staff employed by one or other Council the response provided will in fact relate to the workforce covering both Councils services.
