Cheshire East Local Access Forum
To note the following :-
Councillor Rhoda Bailey was the elected member on the Cheshire Local Access Forum, a statutory advisory body to the Cheshire East Council and Cheshire West and Chester Council. Cheshire West and Chester Council gave notice of their intention to withdraw from the joint Forum in order to set up their own Forum, to match the Council’s geographic area. Therefore, a Cheshire East Local Access Forum has been established. It is intended to appoint less than 16 members and it is, therefore, considered appropriate to appoint one Councillor from Cheshire East. The Leader of the Conservative Group has indicated that he wishes Cllr Rhoda Bailey to continue as the Council’s representative.
