Minutes:

Council had before it the report of the Head of Law and Governance setting out the appointments to committees, the political balance calculations, and the nominations by each group to committee places.

 

In light of the Chief Executive’s announcement, a paper was tabled setting out the new political balance (with seat allocations unchanged) and changes in the proposed memberships from those published:

·         General Purposes Licensing Committee - a vacancy in the Labour nominations

·         East Area Planning Committee - a vacancy in the Labour nominations

·         Scrutiny Committee - remove Dan Iley-Williamson and add David Henwood, and a vacancy in the Labour nominations

 

Councillor Gant reported a change to his group’s nomination to the Audit and Governance Committee, replacing Councillor Roz Smith with himself.

1.    Approve the committee structure for non-executive and regulatory decision making and the Scrutiny function, as defined within the Council’s constitution and set out in Appendix 1 to the report: Committee structure;

2.    Approve the methods, calculations and conventions used in determining political representation on committees as outlined in the report and set out in Appendix 2: Political proportionalities on all non-executive and regulatory committees (other than those to be appointed on an ad hoc basis) 2018-19 (with changes as tabled at the meeting and published with the minutes)

3.    Approve the appointment of nominated members to non-executive and regulatory committees in accordance with the requirements of political proportionality and the nominations made by political groups, as set out below;

4.    Agree that all members of Council will form the pool of members able to observe on appeals and some grievances panels;
