Minutes:

The Member Engagement Manager introduced the Forward Work Programme of the Committee. 

 

He advised that Mr. W. Roddick, the new Police and Crime Commissioner for North Wales, would attend the next meeting of the Committee on 22 April 2013 and that Sian Jones from Flintshire Community Safety partnership would attend to give an update on 20 May 2013.

 

Members reviewed the current programme and agreed that the following items be considered at the meeting of the Committee on 24 June 2013:

 

·         Deeside College

·         Glyndwr University

 

Councillor. N.R. Steele-Mortimer asked if the RNLI could be invited to give a presentation.  The Member Engagement Manager advised that whilst the RNLI might not be on the designated lists of organisations for scrutiny, they could be invited to attend under section 22 (e).

    

                        The Member Engagement Manager advised that Welsh Government guidance was still awaited on scrutiny of designated persons.  This lead to a discussion by members about the purpose of the committee and their disappointment at the delay in legislative guidance from the Welsh Government.  It was suggested that Mr Reg Kilpatrick, Director of Local Government in the Welsh Government be invited to a future committee meeting.  The Member Engagement Manager said that he could approach Mr Kilpatrick.  The committee agreed that a letter should be sent to the office of Carl Sergeant AM. Minster for Local Government and Communities to voice their concerns.
