To establish Council Committees and approve the appointment of Members to serve on those Committees, in accordance with details to be circulated at the meeting.

Minutes:

11.1

RESOLVED UNANIMOUSLY: On the motion formally moved by Councillor Dianne Hurst, and formally seconded by Councillor Joe Otten, that:-

 

 

 

(a)      the terms of reference of the Council’s Committees for 2022/23, as set out in the Council’s revised Constitution which was approved by the Council earlier at this meeting, be re-affirmed;

 

 

 

(b)      the proportional allocation of seats on Committees, as set out in the schedule circulated at the meeting, be approved;

 

 

 

(c)      approval be given to the appointment of Members to all Council Committees in the Municipal Year 2022-23 to reflect the arrangements now agreed and the wishes of the political groups, as set out in these minutes, in accordance with the schedule circulated at the meeting (and including substitutes where appropriate), and, for the purposes of Council Procedure Rule 25.4, the consent of the Council be given in any case where a Member chooses not to be appointed to serve on any Policy or Regulatory Committee;

 

 

 

(d)      as respects the appointment of Members to serve on Council Committees, where vacancies exist or in cases of urgency, the Monitoring Officer, in consultation with the relevant political group whip, be authorised to appoint Members to serve on such Committees, as necessary, on the understanding that details of such appointments will be reported to the next or subsequent meetings of the Council;

 

 

 

(e)      approval be given to continue to disapply proportionality to the Senior Officer Employment Sub-Committees and the Appeals and Collective Disputes Sub-Committees for the reasons set out in paragraph 3.2.3 of the report of the Director of Legal and Governance circulated to all Members of the Council and published on the Council’s website on 17th May 2022;

 

 

 

(f)       it be noted that an amended Members’ Allowances Scheme, reflecting the new committee system of governance for the Council, is to be approved by the Council later at this meeting; and

 

 

 

(g)      it be noted that in the event of any changes to the political composition of the Council occurring during the Municipal Year, political proportionality will be reviewed by the Council as soon as practicable thereafter.
