Decision:

Resolved

 

(1)          That appointments to partnerships, outside bodies, the Shareholder Committee, Member Champions and advisory groups for 2022/2023 be made and ceased as set out in the annex to the Minutes (as set out in the Minute Book).

 

(2)          That authority be delegated to the Assistant Director – Law, Governance and Democratic Services (Interim), in consultation with the Leader of the Council, to appoint Members to any outstanding vacancies and make changes to appointments as may be required for the 2022/2023 Municipal Year.

 

Minutes:

The Assistant Director – Law, Governance and Democratic Services (Interim) submitted a report for Executive to appoint representatives to Partnerships, Outside Bodies and Member Champions where these are executive functions, for the municipal year 2022/2023.

 

Resolved

 

(1)          That appointments to partnerships, outside bodies, the Shareholder Committee, Member Champions and advisory groups for 2022/2023 be made and ceased as set out in the annex to the Minutes (as set out in the Minute Book).

 

(2)          That authority be delegated to the Assistant Director – Law, Governance and Democratic Services (Interim), in consultation with the Leader of the Council, to appoint Members to any outstanding vacancies and make changes to appointments as may be required for the 2022/2023 Municipal Year.

 

Reasons

 

It is proposed that representatives are appointed to Partnerships, Outside Bodies and as Member Champions to ensure that the Council is represented and maintains links with partnerships and outside bodies.

 

Delegation to the Assistant Director – Law, Governance and Democratic Services (Interim), in consultation with the Leader provides flexibility for the remainder of the Municipal Year to appoint to any outstanding vacancies, or if amendments are required to any appointments, and ensures they are made in a timely manner.

 

Alternative options

 

Option 1: Not to appoint representatives to outside bodies, partnerships and as Member Champions. This is not recommended as the internal working groups would be ineffective and the Council would not be represented on these outside bodies and could miss valuable information and opportunities.
