Complaints 2015/16, 17, 18 & 19
Fact finding report of the Monitoring Officer attached. Please note that these four complaints relate to the same matter and subject members and are therefore contained within one report.
Minutes:
Having declared a personal interest leading to bias in this item, Councillor O’Shea left the meeting at 11.10am, vacating the chair.
Councillor Rooney took the chair at this juncture for the remainder of the meeting.
The committee gave consideration to a fact finding report which summarised four complaints received about the same matter, concerning two subject members. Members felt that the main allegations of failing to declare a personal interest and behaving aggressively would have breached the code of conduct and should therefore be investigated. It was moved by Councillor Cartwright, seconded by Councillor Camamile and
RESOLVED – the complaint be referred for further investigation.
