Appointments to Committees and other Council positions for 2012/2013

To approve the appointment of Members of the Council to Committees, other bodies and positions on the Council and to note shadow appointments for 2012/2013.

 

A schedule of nominations will be circulated.

Minutes:

The Council considered a schedule of nominations for the appointment of committees, working groups and panels in accordance with the political balance rules, together with respective Chairs and Vice Chairs for the forthcoming Council year. The list also contained a list of shadow portfolio and support members.

 

Councillor Peter Goldsworthy, Leader of the Conservative Group expressed his disappointment that the ruling administration had not offered the Chair of the Overview and Scrutiny Committee to the opposition, in line with the practice in recent years. The Executive Leader reported that his Group were looking to improve engagement with residents and it was proposed that overview and scrutiny would have a role in this.

 

Councillor Peter Goldsworthy proposed an amendment, seconded by Councillor Greg Morgan, that the Conservative Group be offered the Chair of the Overview and Scrutiny Committee.

 

On being put to the vote, the amendment was LOST and Councillor Goldsworthy then withdrew his Group’s membership of the Overview and Scrutiny Committee.

 

Councillor Alistair Bradley, Executive Leader proposed and Councillor Peter Wilson, Deputy Leader seconded and it was RESOLVED
