Report of the Chief Executive.

Minutes:

 

RESOLVED: That on the Motion of Councillor Cate McDonald, seconded by Councillor Chris Rosling Josephs, this Council:-

 

 

 

(a)       agrees to reduce the size of the Overview and Scrutiny Management Committee from 19 seats to 12 seats, as detailed in the report of the Chief Executive now submitted, and notes that, in relation to the overall number of seats across committees available to each political group, the reduced size of the Committee results in the same number of final adjustments being required to be made as for the status quo, meaning that the adjustments already made by the Council at its meeting on 20th May 2015 can remain in place;

 

 

 

(b)       adopts the changes to the Scrutiny Procedure Rules within Part 4 of the Council’s Constitution, as set out in the report and appendices; and

 

 

 

(c)        notes that the appointment of Members to serve on the revised size Overview and Scrutiny Management Committee will be undertaken at item 9 on the agenda for this meeting.
