Annual Report
The Monitoring Officer will provide a verbal update on the future need for an Annual Report from the Standards Committee.
Minutes:
The Monitoring Officer advised the Committee that an Annual Report would need to be prepared each year, to be signed off by the Chairman of the Committee and presented to a full Council meeting. It was seen as good practice to present the report to a public meeting to raise the profile of the work of the Committee.
Members discussed when to produce the first Annual Report taking into account that the Committee had only recently been established with full Membership, had been spending most of its time on Induction and had yet to be involved in any investigations.
RESOLVED: That an Annual Report be produced for the period to Spring 2010 and presented to the Council meeting in April/May 2010
