Decision as recorded
RESOLVED that the draft final inquiry report be agreed.
The Panel received a draft final report containing the Inquiry Panel findings, conclusions and recommendations for approval. The draft final report had been circulated to all who had given evidence to the Inquiry Panel and Panel Members were provided with comments received. The Panel Convener invited feedback / comments on the contents of the draft final report. Taking into account comments on the draft report the Panel was satisfied that the report was a good reflection of the evidence gathered and no further amendments were considered necessary. The Convener thanked Panel Member and everyone who had participated in the inquiry. Cabinet Members present welcomed the report and would provide a response in due course. Panel Members noted that, subject to agreement of the report, the Convener would present it to the Scrutiny Programme Committee on 19 November, asking the Committee to endorse its submission to Cabinet for decision. The report has been scheduled for 12 December Cabinet meeting. A formal Cabinet response would then follow, and the Panel would reconvene between 9-12 months after Cabinet decision to check on the implementation of agreed recommendations. RESOLVED that the draft final inquiry report be agreed.
Councillors must say when they have a personal link to something being discussed, such as a job, a property or a family member. A prejudicial interest is one strong enough that the councillor usually leaves the room and takes no part.
