Agenda item

Council considered a report concerning the Scheme of Delegations in the constitution.  Members were advised that there was a constitutional requirement for Council to review the Scheme of Delegations each year and this took place at the Annual Council meeting.  However, Members were advised that there were no changes proposed to the Scheme of Delegations on this occasion.

The report was briefly debated and Members commented that there was support for the proposal detailed in the report.  However, it was also noted that some of the delegations to officers included in the Scheme of Delegations would be reviewed during the year to ensure that these supported the priorities that had been included in the new Council Plan.

The recommendation was proposed by Councillor Sharon Harvey and seconded by Councillor Jane Spilsbury.

RESOLVED that

the current version of the Officer Scheme of Delegations be agreed.
