Report of the Chair of Overview and Scrutiny, Councillor Tim Harman

The Chair of Overview and Scrutiny introduced the annual report and gave thanks to officers who had supported the work of the committee and the task groups over the year. Scrutiny had covered a wide range of issues and the committee had also invited representatives of community groups to speak to the committee about the valuable services they provide.

He encouraged members to bring forward any issues which they felt would be worthy of scrutiny and to put themselves forward for O&S task groups. He also encouraged Members to complete the Members Skills Audit so those with the appropriate experience are invited to join the relevant group.

It was noted that the membership of the Cycling and Walking Scrutiny Task group was incorrect and should read Councillors Wilkinson, Lillywhite, Murch and Williams with co-optees John Mallows, Bronwen Thornton and John Newbury.

RESOLVED

To note the Annual Report of Overview and Scrutiny 2014-15.
