Agenda item

The meeting considered the report of the Member Appointments Process Panel and considered each of the appointment in the order set out in recommendations 2 to 12 in the report. In most cases the appointments were moved, seconded and approved in accordance with the expressions of interest in the report. Any changes to the report are identified below. Recommendation was withdrawn.

 

In introducing the report it was noted that the arrangements of allowing the Chair and Deputy Chair of the Authority and the Chairs of Standing Committees to attend meetings of Committees they were not appointed to was working well and no adverse feedback had been received. Therefore it was confirmed that the appointments to Committees this year would follow the same process.

 

Planning Committee

 

It was noted that the Authority had previously agreed that the Membership of both Standing Committees should be set at 15 but, following expressions of interest, only 13 Members had expressed an interest in being appointed to Planning Committee. As the Authority wanted to set Planning Committee membership at 15 it was agreed that the existing allocation of places to local authority members be maintained, but for this year the Metropolitan Councils vacancy be allocated to Cllr D Williams from Derbyshire County Council and that the remaining Secretary of State position be allocated to Cllr Mrs L Roberts.

Following the appointments to Planning Committee Mrs E Sayer and Cllrs D Greenhalgh, Mrs G Heath and Mrs N Turner were appointed to the Audit Resources and Performance Committee.

Due Diligence Panel

 

It was agreed that Mr Z Hamid would be appointed as the member and Cllr Mrs C Howe as his deputy.
