            The Overview & Scrutiny Facilitator presented the last Forward Work Programme for the current municipal year for consideration.  The meeting scheduled for the 8^{th of} March at 10.00 am had been changed to a Briefing Session on the Agile System.  The next meetings of the committee were scheduled for the 7^{th of} June and 5^th July.

            Moving to the Action Tracking report the Overview & Scrutiny Facilitator provided an update on the ongoing actions and confirmed that the Town Centre Markets item for Flint and Buckley would remain on the Action Tracking report.  The Highway Network Manager agreed to speak to Councillor Thomas following the meeting regarding his concerns on the review of grass cutting procedures.

                Councillor Dennis Hutchinson asked if an item on street markings could be included in the Forward Work Programme.  The Chief Officer (Streetscene and Transportation) suggested speaking to Councillor Hutchinson following the meeting to discuss the locations causing concern.   Councillor George Hardcastle seconded Councillor Hutchinson’s request for this to be included in the forward work programme.

The recommendations were moved and seconded by Councillors Paul Shotton and Owen Thomas
