Report from the Assistant Chief Executive.

Recommendations:

That Cabinet:

1.    Agrees that councillors be appointed to serve on outside bodies, as detailed on the schedule in Appendix 1.

2.    Agree that any in year changes are agreed by the Chief Executive in conjunction with the Leader of the Council.

Consideration was given to the report which presented the nominations received for appointments to outside bodies. Outside bodies were external organisations which had requested that the Council appoint a representative to them. Outside bodies had separate governance structures to the Council. Appointments to outside bodies could be an important mechanism for community leadership, partnership and joint working and knowledge and information sharing.

The Council’s Constitution stated that Cabinet was responsible for the appointments to Outside Bodies. This report presented the nominations received and recommended the appointment of the nominees to the various organisations and partnerships. Details of the appointments were attached in Appendix 1 to the report.

Resolved:

That Cabinet:

1. Agree that Councillors be appointed to serve on outside bodies, as detailed on the schedule in Appendix 1.
   
   
2. Agree that any in year changes are agreed by the Chief Executive in conjunction with the Leader of the Council.
