Minutes:

The report was presented by the Leader of the Council, in the absence of the Cabinet Member Healthy Lifestyles.

He reported that the Wilson Gallery had a large collection owned by the Council, and managed by the Trust on its behalf. This arrangement was reviewed every 5 years and was due this month. The existing policy was to be reviewed and updated where necessary. He noted that there was a recurring need for an officer at the council to be responsible on behalf of CBC.
