Issue - meetings

To consider a report by the Scrutiny Coordinator (copy enclosed) seeking a review of the committee’s forward work programme and updating members on relevant issues.

11:45am – 12:00pm

The Scrutiny Coordinator introduced the report (previously circulated) seeking members' review of the Committee’s work programme and providing an update on relevant issues.

Discussion focussed on the following:–

The Scrutiny Coordinator informed the Committee that the reports on the Mistreatment of Dogs and the New Waste and Recycling Model would be available for consideration at the next meeting on 20 October 2022.  However, the report on Second Homes and Short-term Holiday Lets was dependent upon further information from the Welsh Government and would therefore be rescheduled for December’s meeting.

The Committee was also advised that the Scrutiny Chairs and Vice-Chairs Group (SCVCG) following consideration of a number of scrutiny requests at its July 2022 meeting had referred two topics to the Committee for detailed examination.  These related to the Welsh Ambulance Service Trust’s response times to emergency callouts, and the impact of the introduction of the 20 mile per hour speed limit on the county’s roads on the Authority and on residents.  Both items had been scheduled on the Committee’s forward work programme for its December 2022 meeting.

Having considered the above the Committee: 

RESOLVED: - subject to the above amendments to confirm the Committee’s forward work programme as detailed in Appendix 1 to the report.

The meeting concluded at 11.20 am
