FIRST 'CALL IN' OF THIS COUNCIL

On Thursday all the members of the Scrutiny Committee who were available - six of them - signed a 'call in' on a proposed Cabinet Member delegated decision - to invite PA Consultants to do more work on procuring a Strategic Transformational Partnership for the Council (see my blog of 26 April).

We did this because we have concerns about the delays in PA's original submission last April on a full scale strategic partnership, concerns about the timetable of events that have lead to this decision, and our strong belief that this sort of decision needs to be made in public.

An extraordinary meeting of the Scrutiny Committee will now be held on (most likely) 21/22 August.
