That Mr Ken Molyneux be reappointed to the Standards Committee for four years.

The Chief Officer (Governance) introduced a report to consider appointing a Standards Committee Independent Member for a second term.  He provided background information and advised that the term of office of Mr. Ken Molyneux, co-opted member of the Standards Committee, would expire in December 2018.  Mr. Molyneux was eligible to be reappointed for a further term and had indicated that he would be willing to serve again if re-appointed.  The Chief Officer advised that if Members decided not to reappoint Mr. Molyneux then the Council would need to convene an Appointments Panel and  advertise the vacancy in the local press at a cost. 

                        The recommendation in the report that Mr Ken Molyneux was reappointed to the Standards Committee for four years was moved and seconded and on being put to the vote was carried. 

RESOLVED:

That Mr Ken Molyneux be reappointed to the Standards Committee for four years.
