Minutes:

Councillor Isobel Seccombe presented the annual report on the use of the Council’s urgency and call-in procedures, and noted that several urgent decisions had been required during the course of the year but that there had been limited use of the call-in process over the same period. Councillor Peter Butlin seconded the proposal to note the report echoing the view that the processes worked well.

 

Councillor Jonathan Chilvers noted that whilst it was important for the Council to be able to make decisions at pace it was also vital to maintain the democratic process wherever possible and ensure that sufficient notice was provided to enable queries or comments to be made ahead of decisions being made.

 

Resolved:

 

That Council note the report.
