Issue - meetings

In accordance with the provisions of Section 16 of the Local Government and Housing Act 1989, to appoint Members to Committees for the Civic Year, in accordance with the wishes expressed by the Political Groups.

 

The Chairman of the Council presented the report which set out the wishes expressed by the political groups in respect of the appointment of Members to serve on each of the Council’s formal Committees for the 20/21 Civic Year.

 

Requests had been received that the Overview and Scrutiny be not politically balanced.

 

Members were asked to suspend the rules relating to proportionality in respect of the Overview and Scrutiny Committee and appoint the members named in the report to the respective Committees.

 

Whilst the Council had had the need to re-appoint the Committees in accordance with its duty to make appointments to Committees in accordance with the wishes expressed by political groups, all Group Leaders had indicated they have no wish to amend the Chairmen and Vice-Chairmanship appointments previously made.

 

In light of this position, Members were merely asked to re-affirm the appointments previously made to these positions.

 

With no questions posed, following a unanimous vote in favour it was

 

RESOLVED that: -

 

(a)     the rules relating to proportionality be suspended in relation to the Overview and Scrutiny; and

 

(b)    in accordance with the provisions of section 16 of the Local Government and Housing Act 1989 and the wishes expressed by political groups, the following members be appointed to serve on the Council’s committees for the remainder of the civic year as follows:
