Issue - meetings

(1)   Regarding paragraph 52 of the minutes, the Council had approached the Government to request that they be able to work together on a review of Local Government finance.  There had been no response to this request to date but the Council would continue to follow the request up. 

(2)   Ms McMullan explained to the Committee that she would be taking on the role for the South East lead for Finance, which would involve being a representative for the South East Strategic Authorities.  A key aim was to share ideas from other authorities and to identify areas where bureaucracy could be reduced. 

RESOLVED: that subject to the amendment of “Mr Dean” on page one for “Mrs Dean” the minutes of the meeting held on 23 June 2010 are correctly recorded and that they be signed by the Chairman.
