Issue - meetings

(a)       That the Forward Work Programme, as amended at the meeting, be approved; and

(b)       That a Forward Planning session for Committee Members take place following the meeting of the Committee scheduled for 15 July 2015.   

The Environment and Social Care Overview & Scrutiny Facilitator introduced the report to consider the Forward Work Programme for the Committee. 

            She explained that the 2014/15 Year End Reporting and Data Submission report would be submitted to the meeting on 15 July 2015.  A workshop on the Bus Subsidy Review was due to be held the following day and a report on the Review would need to be submitted to the Committee following the workshop; this would be to either the 15 July or 16 September 2015 meeting.  A report on the Review of Winter Maintenance would also be considered at the 16 September 2015 meeting.

            Councillor David Evans asked if an update on any works that were to take place on the A494/A55 could be provided to a future meeting. 

            The Facilitator advised that there was a need to consider the items for inclusion on the Forward Work Programme now that the dates of meetings from September 2015 to July 2016 had been agreed.  She suggested that a Forward Planning session be arranged for July 2015 and following a discussion, it was agreed that this would take place following the meeting of the Committee scheduled for 15 July 2015. 

During earlier discussions, the Chief Officer (Streetscene and Transportation) indicated that an update on the progress of the Speed Limit Review would be required in September 2015.        

            RESOLVED:

(a)       That the Forward Work Programme, as amended at the meeting, be approved; and

(b)       That a Forward Planning session for Committee Members take place following the meeting of the Committee scheduled for 15 July 2015.
