Community Transport Task and Finish Review

Meeting: 22/11/2011 - Environment and Prosperity Scrutiny Committee (Item 151)

Community Transport Task and Finish Review

To discuss the Community Transport Task and Finish Review

Minutes:

The Committee discussed the Community Transport Task and Finish Review with the Head of Highways and Transport. The Head of Highways and Transport explained that there needed to be a total transport review to take stock of the current position of transport as a whole and possible strategy for the future. He suggested that a Task and Finish group looking specifically at Community Transport at this time would impact on the other areas of transport and potentially have a bad effect on a total transport review.

 

Various members of the Committee welcomed a total review of transport as it was a service that cuts across many portfolios and scrutiny committees such as Children’s Services and Adult Social Care. The Head of Highways and Transport suggested that the Task and Finish Group should be suspended until it was more suitable to look at Community Transport in isolation.

 

RESOLVED: That the Community Transport Task and Finish Review be suspended.
