Minutes:

The Committee considered the report of the Head of Regulation and Compliance that sought the views of the Committee on the draft Work Programme for 2017/18, the identification of potential topics for scrutiny reviews to be undertaken by a Working Group appointed by the Committee and the identification of any items for pre-scrutiny scrutiny by the Committee from the Key Decision Forward Plan.

 

Councillor Bradshaw, Chair of the Committee, referred to the on-going Area Committees Working Group and indicated that following his selection as Mayor, Councillor Robinson was no longer a member of the Working Group.
