It hasn't escaped my notice that the recent changes to the membership of the Council's Scrutiny Committee have left the Tory ruling group without the majority the leadership claimed to require in April last year.........see my post of 27.04.07 "Opposition Scrutiny lost after one year".
Out of the 14 full voting places on the committee (excluding the school people) the Conservatives are entitled to just 6 places as they use the rest of their entitlement to give a place to independent Muriel Miller so that she can Chair, and two co-opted places to Sue Poston and Charles Rogers. And of course some of the Conservative members of the committee are not good attenders !
I wonder how long this balance will last..................
