Quarterly headcount statistics
My thanks to Cornwall Council for supplying this information, in response to my question prompted by the recruitment freeze announced in October.
December 31 2009: 20,994 employees
Headline fall: 53
This is some way short of the "1,000 jobs per year" rate by which the council aims to shed workers as part of its target reduction of 500 - 600 posts. I don't read too much in to these figures. By June, though, we should see a clear trend.

I'm ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio Devon’s Graham Smith, blogging on news, views and some fresh insights into West Country life, particularly the way government works locally and nationally.
