Issue - meetings

Reporting Person: Councillor Josh Brown

The Council was due to hold an extraordinary meeting on 22 August to discuss the improvement and recovery programme.  Councillor Brown, as Chair of the Committee, had agreed to hold an extraordinary meeting on 14 August as requested by Officers, ahead of Council.

Councillor Javaid considered whether more visual accompaniment to items would benefit residents and Members alike. The Member further considered that a clear description of the practical impact be given to aid comprehension by residents.  Other members of the Committee agreed with the sentiments raised by the Councillor.

The Chair agreed to take away the proposal to invite Royal Mail to a future meeting and restated the previously mooted invitation of South Western Railway.

It was requested that benchmarking be performed for the item ‘Scrutiny of definitions of statutory and non-statutory services’ against other Councils that had been served with S114 Notices.

Resolved

That the Work Programme be noted.
