Minutes:
Council considered the report attached to the agenda relating to appointments to committees of the council and outside bodies in line with the rules of political proportionality. Council was informed of the supplement published following the agenda with a corrected version of the report.
The solicitor to the council explained that any members who had been nominated for positions which attracted a special responsibility allowance under the councillors’ allowances scheme had a pecuniary interest in that item. Following a written request she had granted a dispensation and therefore those members who were affected could participate in the discussion, remain in the room and vote on all of the recommendations in item 8. She advised, however, that members should refrain from voting in respect of recommendation (g) where they were nominated for an individual appointment.
Councillor JG Lester proposed and Councillor NE Shaw seconded recommendations a-e which were carried unanimously. Recommendation f was put to the vote and carried unanimously.
