Executive Director, Governance, People and Resources
Decision:
1) That Committee notes the information in this Report.
Minutes:
55.1 The Committee considered a report of the Executive Director, Governance, People & Resources that updated the Committee on progress in the determination of complaints that Members have breached the Code of Conduct for Members since the last Update report.
55.2 In response to a question from Councillor Peltzer Dunn, the Executive Director, Governance, People & Resources confirmed that link to the procedure for Member Complaints could be added into future versions of the report.
55.3 In response to questions from Councillor Meadows, the Executive Director, Governance, People & Resources agreed that some complaints had been open for some time and this was down to a combination of factors including complexity of the case, responses from the individuals concerned and officer resource in the context of a very high number of complaints. Complaints had been anonymised so as not to prejudice Members however, a different method of sharing that information with the committee could be considered.
55.4 Resolved-
1) That Committee notes the information in this Report.
