Decision details
SCRUTINY WORK PROGRAMME
Decision Maker: Partnerships Scrutiny Committee
Decision status: For Determination
Decisions:
The
Scrutiny Coordinator guided Members through the Scrutiny Forward Work Programme
(previously circulated).
It
was explained that the Scrutiny Chairs and Vice Chairs had met on the 19th
January 2023 and they considered a number of requests for Scrutiny at that
meeting. Of the requests considered the Group asked that the Partnerships
Scrutiny Committee schedule two items onto its Forward Work Programme for May
2023.
These
were: -
·
The
Re-ballot for the Potential Rhyl Business Improvements District
·
The
Quality and Condition of Registered Social Landlords Housing Stock in
Denbighshire.
In
relation to the agenda for the next Partnerships Scrutiny Committee meeting due
to be held on 30 March 2023, it was noted that currently there were no items to
be discussed at that meeting. It was suggested by the Scrutiny Coordinator that
the date of the March meeting was kept in the event that any urgent matters
arose. In the event of no urgent
business being forthcoming that meeting should be cancelled.
The
Scrutiny Coordinator advised that in December 2022, Cabinet had approved a New
Capital Process and supported the Terms of Reference for a new Capital Scrutiny
Group. This would be similar to the
former the Strategic Investment Group (SIG) that had been in existence during
the term of the previous Council. A
request had been received that one representative from each Scrutiny committee
should be appointed to serve on this Group.
There would be six meetings a year and the representative would be
expected to report back to the Committee after they had attended the meeting.
Therefore, it was requested that one representative and one substitute
representative be nominated, chosen, and agreed by the Committee.
The
Chair welcomed nominations from the Committee.
Councillor Peter Scott was nominated to be the representative for Partnerships Scrutiny Committee with Councillor Joan Butterfield being nominated as his substitute. Both these nominations were seconded and Members voted in favour of the appointments. At the conclusion of the discussion.
The Committee:
Resolved:
(i)
subject to the inclusion of a progress
report on the North Denbighshire Community Hospital/Royal Alexandra Hospital
Development Project for the September 2023 meeting, to confirm its forward work
programme as detailed in Appendix 1 to the report;
(ii)
if, nearer the date of its next scheduled
meeting on 30 March 2023 no business had come forward to warrant the holding of
the meeting, it was to be cancelled; and
(iii)
to appoint Councillor Peter Scott to serve
as its representative on the Capital Scrutiny Group (CSG), with Councillor Joan
Butterfield to serve as his substitute.
At this juncture the Committee
adjourned for a break and resumed its business at 11.10am
