Issue - meetings

To consider a report of the Borough Solicitor on the Calendar of Meetings.

The Committee considered a report of the Borough Solicitor on the Calendar of Meetings for 2009-10.

The report outlined that the Committee was currently scheduled to meet on a monthly basis but although the Committee had a high volume of business, it was suggested that monthly meetings may not be sustainable.  It was therefore proposed that the Committee meet on alternate months on an 8 weekly cycle and the other scheduled meeting dates be used for Mid Point meetings, involving the Chairman, Vice Chairman and group Spokespersons.

RESOLVED:  That the current Calendar of Meetings be amended so that the Committee meets every 2 months on the following dates:

      29 July;

      16 September;

      18 November;

      13 January;

      10 March

and other dates listed on the Calendar be used for Mid Point meetings.
