- View the background to item 38/16
Minutes:
The Democratic Services Manager introduced the item, highlighting the key principle that each Member would take individual responsibility for their learning and development and identify their own needs.
At the Authority’s Annual General Meeting on 1 July 2016, Cllr S Marshall-Clarke had been appointed as the Member Representative for Learning and Development. He addressed the meeting, welcoming the report and urging Members to take up the opportunities offered by the programme. In particular, he encouraged participation in the Member Survey which was issued every 2 years and was due again in the coming month.
Members moved an amendment to Recommendation 2 to show that the target of 20 hours included external activities, by inserting the word “altogether” after “the target of 20 hours”.
The amended recommendation was moved, seconded, voted upon and carried.
RESOLVED:
|
1. That the proposed Member learning and development framework (Appendix 1) and the events programme for January to December 2017 (Appendix 2) be agreed.
|
|
2. That Member learning and development activities continue to be recorded in terms of hours and include personal learning and development by Members outside of events organised by the Authority, with the target of 20 hours altogether per Member in every 12 months. |
