ENVIRONMENT AND TRANSPORT SELECT COMMITTEE - 26 SEPTEMBER 2001

REVIEW OF APPOINTMENTS TO OUTSIDE BODIES

REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR OF CORPORATE SERVICES

SUMMARY/PURPOSE

To consider the appointment of members to a number of outside bodies.

BACKGROUND

The Executive, at its meeting on 28 September 2000, reviewed the process involved in the appointment of Council representatives to outside bodies. It was decided that vacancies to the majority of outside bodies should be filled in accordance with the wishes of the relevant Select Committee and then submitted to the Executive for decision.

Nominations have been sought from all Members of the Council and where the appropriate number of nominations have been received for the vacancies available, these have been filled accordingly.

After carrying out this process the outside bodies, where vacancies still exist or where more nominations have been received than required, that fall to this Committee are :-

Outside Body No of Reps Proposed Nominations Existing representatives
Standing Conference on Problems Associated with the Coastline (SCOPAC) 1 + 1 deputy Mr J Effemey
Mrs J L Wareham
Mr M O Morgan Huws

The Committee is therefore requested to make appropriate recommendations to fill the vacant positions.

If no Council members wish to fill the vacancies then these will be circulated to the Town and Parish Councils, where appropriate.

FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS

Travelling and subsistence allowances can be paid in respect of attendance at meetings of these outside bodies.

RECOMMENDATIONS

That appropriate appointments be recommended.
