Issue - meetings

The Chairman of Overview and Scrutiny Committee submitted a report detailing the Committee’s future work programme.  The Scrutiny Officer provided an update of the report. 

It was proposed that the Climate Change Task and Finish Group and the Fuel Poverty items be rescheduled for Overview and Scrutiny Committee in February 2018 in order to provide sufficient time for the Task and Finish Group to meet and report back.  A briefing note would be presented to Members of Overview and Scrutiny Committee in December 2017.

Councillor G Cutting referred to Scrutiny Proposals he had submitted in relation to Manchester Airport Group (Parking) and Residents’ Parking Zones and queried why these had not been included on the agenda.  The Scrutiny Officer explained that Officers were working on scoping proposals to find the most appropriate way of reporting on both issues. 

The Scrutiny Officer advised that in future, she would add any scrutiny proposals received to the Draft Work Programme so that Members were reassured that the items were not lost.

Members approved the draft Work Programme for Overview and Scrutiny Committee.

RESOLVED – that the draft Work Programme for Overview and Scrutiny Committee, as now detailed, be approved.
