To compare and contrast how other Councils in
North Wales process applications for dispensation
Additional documents:
Decision:
That the processes and procedures for dealing with applications for dispensation by County Councillors and Town and Community Councillors at Conwy, Denbighshire, and Wrexham, be noted.
Minutes:
The Deputy Monitoring Officer introduced a report to compare and contrast how other Councils in North Wales processed applications for dispensation. He provided background information and advised that the report reviewed how dispensations were dealt with at Conwy, Denbighshire, and Wrexham Councils (the Councils).
The Deputy Monitoring Officer explained that no dispensation applications had been made between 2019 and 2021 at those Councils and therefore the report detailed the latest applications dealt with by each one. He referred to the procedures for consideration of applications at the councils and said they were similar to that of Flintshire County Council. The Deputy Monitoring Officer reported on the requests for dispensation received by the councils as detailed in the report and the decisions reached.
The recommendation was moved by Jonathan Duggan-Keen and seconded by Mark Morgan.
RESOLVED:
That the processes and procedures for dealing with applications for dispensation by County Councillors and Town and Community Councillors at Conwy, Denbighshire, and Wrexham, be noted.
