OPC Constitutional Changes
- Meeting of Older People's Council, Tuesday, 22nd May, 2012 10.00am (Item 53.)
- View the background to item 53.
Minutes:
53.1 Since Colin Carden was standing down as OPC Member, OPC would usually hold a by-election. However the cost of several thousand pounds involved was disproportionately high at this time. Subject to OPC agreement it was intended to co-opt instead, therefore proposed changes to the OPC Constitution regarding membership and co-option were being proposed. After discussion and a vote this was unanimously agreed.
53.2 Separately a proposal to give co-opted Members of OPC full speaking and voting rights was voted upon and unanimously agreed.
53.3 RESOLVED That the Head of Scrutiny be asked to make the necessary changes to OPC constitution as agreed above. (ACTION TH, MvB)
