Agenda item - Draft Code of Conduct

Report of the Acting Executive Director Economy, Environment & Culture (copy attached).

6.1      The Resident Involvement Manager introduced the report and stated the following:

·         The Code of Conduct was developed as part of the Everyone Counts report that was agreed by the Housing Committee in December 2012.

·         The Code of Conduct had not been rewritten; however, a shorter set of ground rules for meetings had been developed, which was similar, to make them more user friendly.

·         The residents should decide whether a section in the constitution should be added to include the protocol for when a resident behaves poorly at a number of meetings.

·         Residents had added a section called “Length of Withdrawal from Resident Involvement” after a previous breach.

6.2       RESOLVED – That the Panel agreed to note the report.
