Minutes:

The Chairman introduced the report on the updated Work Programme, drawing the Committee’s attention to the key changes since the document had last been received.

The Committee reaffirmed its desire to see the Suggested Items be included in the Work Programme: the Complaints Report and Pre-Decision Scrutiny – Risk Management Update.

The Complaints Report was presented to the Committee annually.  The report was being reviewed to ensure that Members received the most useful report but did not duplicate reports submitted to other Committees.

It was requested by Members that Thames Water be invited to attend a future meeting of the Committee.  It was additionally requested that senior representatives of the Council’s wholly owned companies be invited to attend a future meeting of the Committee. 

Changes to the Company Governance Structure had started; elected Members had been removed from company Boards.  It was anticipated that the Committee would receive a report on the progress made to Company Governance Structure.

The Committee asked to review the proposed events for the Celebrate Woking calendar in light of the Council’s financial constraints ahead of the Overview and Scrutiny Committee meeting to be held on 21 November 2022.

Resolved

That the Work Programme be noted.
