Additional documents:
Minutes: It was noted that the procedure for call-in relates to decisions made by the Cabinet or a sub-committee of the Cabinet, an individual Cabinet member, or a key decision made by an officer. As this report was one for Cabinet to note at its meeting of the 19 October 2016, rather than a decision taken, it was decided that this subject – ‘Corporate Performance report ‘– be discussed at a future business meeting of Overview and Scrutiny. This should follow the publication of the second quarter of performance data. The Chair clarified that reports considered by Cabinet ‘for noting’ do not prevent or restrict Scrutiny from looking at the issue through it’s normal business meetings or through a one-off specially called meeting. The Governance and Scrutiny Manager would send an email to members of Overview and Scrutiny explaining this further. ACTION – Claire Johnson |
