Councillor Stewart moved and Councillor B.Charalambous seconded a further proposal to change the order of business on the agenda under paragraph 2.2 (page 4-5) of the Council’s procedure rules to enable the meeting to take the following as the next items of business:

Councillor Neville (as Leader of the Opposition) sought clarification on use of the procedural motion, given the change in order of the agenda already agreed at the start of the meeting.
