Decisions:

Members received a report which highlighted recommended changes to the council’s constitution. It was noted that the document had been completely rewritten and reformatted yet there were relatively few substantive changes to the content. A member asked whether there was any intention to increase the number of Executive members (due to the recommended amended wording in relation to the appointment of Executive members), and in response it was reported that this change was included following a change in legislation and not due to an intention to amend the numbers.

 

RESOLVED – the constitution be RECOMMENDED to Council for approval.
