Issue - meetings

The Chairman submitted a report seeking agreement to the draft work programme for 2016/17 as detailed within Essential Reference Paper ‘B’ of the report submitted. 

The Scrutiny Officer referred to the report on the “Markets” function which had been transferred to the new Head of Operations following the restructure.  It was noted that this report would be presented for Members’ consideration in June 2017.  It was suggested that, as this left only one report, an update on a Leisure Facilities Strategy, which it was felt, could be circulated on the Members’ Information Bulletin, the meeting on 22 November 2016 be cancelled.  This was supported.

The Chairman referred to the suggested Crime and Disorder topic (Town Centre Night Time Economy) for the meeting on 28 March 2017.  This was supported.

Members received the report, as now amended.

RESOLVED – that (A) the work programme as now amended, be approved; and

(B)   the Community Scrutiny Committee meeting on 22 November 2016 be cancelled.
