Minutes:
The democratic services manager presented the report, the details of which are outlined in the agenda pack.
During the committee’s discussion of the item, the following points were raised:
· Engagement with parish councils had been discussed but they were a separate legal entity. The constitution structure would need to ensure that the role of parish councils was enhanced and not inhibited.
· There will be constitutional and operational changes.
Councillor Yolande Watson left the meeting at 1227 hrs.

The re-thinking governance working group further consider parish councils and the role that they play.
