Minutes:

The Chair welcomed members to the meeting and handed over to Matthew Mannion, Head of Democratic Services, to administratively run the meeting and introduce the report.

 

Matthew Mannion, Head of Democratic Services, presented a report on Nominations for Freedom of the Borough.

 

He explained that the nominations received to date were presented in the Appendix to the report. These were set out in different groups for ease of reference.

 

The Panel discussed the nominations and agreed a provisional shortlist for further consideration. It was agreed that Members would take the shortlist away to consider and to each identify any that should be given the award. Responses would be collated to help the Panel come to a collective view.

 

In deciding, it was suggested that in addition to the main criteria for considering awarding Freedom of the Borough the panel should also look at whether the nominee’s contribution was:

·       Across the whole borough and all communities

·       For a long period of time

·       Over and above their paid job

 

The information from the returned forms would be collated and presented at the next meeting for the panel to then pick their final choices for the award.

 

There were queries about checking whether nominees live in the borough, but it was clarified that this is not a requirement as long as their contribution/the services they are being nominated for took place in Tower Hamlets.

 

The panel stressed that there would need to be confidence that the final nominations would be unanimously accepted at Council.

 

RESOLVED

 

 

1.             To circulate a provisional shortlist agreed at this meeting and any further nominations received upto the closing date, for the panel to consider for their preferred choices for the Freedom of the Borough award.

 

2.             To consider the results at the next panel meeting for a final decision to be made.
