Agenda item

RESOLVED: On the motion of Councillor Peter Rippon, seconded by Councillor David Baker, that the City Council:-

(a)       notes the Leader’s notification of the appointment of a Deputy Leader and Cabinet Members, including their portfolio areas of responsibility, and the appointment of Cabinet Members to serve on the Cabinet Highways Committee (including substitutes), and approves the appointment of Cabinet Advisers, all as detailed in the schedule circulated at the meeting;

(b)       notes that the Leader’s scheme of delegation currently in operation for the discharge of Executive functions will continue, other than in relation to the names and remits of some of the Portfolios of the Cabinet Members, which will be required to be changed to reflect the appointments now made by the Leader, and these will be published and circulated to all Members in the near future;

(c)        notes the main opposition group’s notification of the Leader of the Opposition and approves the appointment of Shadow Cabinet Members, as detailed in the schedule circulated at the meeting; and

(d)       notes that, by appointing two less Cabinet Advisers, and thereby paying two less Band D allowances, from the number appointed in 2017/18, the effect of these appointments upon the Special Responsibility Allowance element of the budget for Members’ Allowances in 2018/19 is to remove a budget pressure of £9,500.
