To give consideration to the Work Programme

Consideration was given to the work programme for 2010/2011. Members made the following amendments:

• That as the Highway Maintenance Term Contract was being dealt with by a Cabinet group, a Task and Finish Group was not required to be set up, however the Committee would receive an update at a future meeting.
• That as the recycling collection methods were being investigated by a consultant a Task and Finish Group was not required to be set up, however the Committee would receive a progress report at its meeting scheduled to be held on 6 July 2010.
• That the item relating to Crewe Crematorium remain on the work programme as a possible future item for consideration.

The Chairman reported that as part of a Cabinet review to assess the future provision of car parking, the Portfolio Holder for Environmental Services has requested the Committee to carry out a review of 19 towns and villages. The Committee therefore agreed to set up a Task and Finish Group comprising of Councillors Walton, Gilliland and Thorley and that Councillors Fletcher, Merry and Dykes also be requested to sit on that group.

RESOLVED

That the work programme be amended to reflect the issues highlighted above.
