To approve a Members Allowances Scheme for the Shadow Council.

Consideration was given to a report advising on progress made regarding the adoption of the Members Allowances Scheme for the shadow period.  With regard to the decisions requested Members were asked to defer making a decision on the payment of an interim basic allowance so as to allow Cheshire County Council’s Independent Remuneration Panel to complete its review of the scheme and to report to the next meeting of the Council.

RESOLVED

1. That a decision on the interim basic allowance for the shadow period be deferred until the next meeting of the Council.

2. That approval be given to the application of the County Council’s rates for travel and subsistence allowances.
