New Standards Arrangements
31/01/2013 - New Standards Regime
Mr John Williams, Service Head, Democratic Services introduced the report. He reminded Members that older versions of this report had been submitted to the previous Standards Committee and this report attempted to pull the different strands together, incorporating the amendments that had been suggested by Members.
Mr Williams highlighted one small change to the Terms of Reference, Appendix B – the insertion of the words “… and other faiths …” where there was reference to church representatives of the Overview and Scrutiny Committee.
Members were advised that they would be required to attend training and briefing sessions for the new Standards Advisory Committee, which will be arranged over the coming weeks.
RESOLVED:
That the report be noted.
