Decision details

The Committee considered the most appropriate way to hold the next cycle of Council meetings in the absence of legislation on virtual meetings in the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.

Members agreed as national restrictions had been extended until 19^th July, there was no difference from when the decision had been taken to hold virtual Advisory meetings in May. Therefore, it was a sensible and cautious approach to continue holding virtual meetings during the next cycle with an in-person meeting to pass any un-delegated recommendations on 2 August 2021.

Resolved:

That, the forthcoming cycle of Council meetings be held as Advisory Committee Meetings with ratification of decisions, not made under delegated powers, taking place at an in-person Full Council meeting on 2 August 2021.
