Issue - meetings

To consider the addition of the Nantwich Partnership to the list of approved organisations.

Consideration was given to a request for this new organisation to be added to the approved list of outside organisations.  Membership of the Partnership was open to any individual, group or organisation etc actively involved in regenerating Nantwich and in furthering the work of the Partnership.  A Management Team of between 5 and 11 representatives was proposed.

In accordance with the established procedure and criteria the Sub-Committee considered whether or not the Nantwich Partnership should be added to the list of approved organisations;  having agreed that it was suitable it was then agreed that it should be a Category 2 (Constitution appointed) organisation.

The Sub-Committee requested clarification of the number of Cheshire East Councillor representatives to be appointed and it was proposed that, subject to further clarification, approval be given for up to two representatives to be appointed and that the appointments be dealt with by way of the Casual Vacancies Procedure.

RESOLVED

1.    That approval be given for the Nantwich Partnership to be added to the list of Category 2 (Constitution Committee) Outside Organisation appointments.

2.    That, subject to further clarification, up to two Cheshire East Councillors be appointed to the Partnership and that the appointments be finalised in accordance with the Casual Vacancies Procedure.
