Minutes:

The Committee considered a report in the agenda along with appendix 1 in the supplement, which set out the proposed membership of the four Scrutiny Sub-Committees, namely the Children & Young People Sub-Committee, Health & Social Care Sub-Committee, Homes Sub-Committee and the Streets & Environment Sub-Committee. The Committee was asked to determine these appointments.

 

Before agreeing the membership of the Scrutiny Sub-Committees for 2024-25, the Committee agreed to put on record its formal thanks to Councillor Richard Chatterjee and Councillor Ria Patel for all their work in their respective chairing roles over the past two year. Councillor Alasdair Stewart and Councillor Andrew Price were welcomed as their replacements.

 

Resolved: To

 

1.     Agree to waive the requirement for the seats on the sub-committees to be allocated in line with the overall political balance of the Council, and
