(a) Matters (if any) referred to the Executive Meeting
(b) Any called-in Executive Decisions
Minutes:
A representative of the Service Director (Legal & Democracy) reported on two referrals that had been made to the Executive:-
(i) Environment & Economy Scrutiny Committee – 2 June 2011
That the Executive be requested to recommend to the Environment Partnership that its membership be extended to include representation from councillors based upon the proportionality of the Council as a whole.
(ii) Adults & Communities Scrutiny Committee – 6 June 2011
That the Executive be recommended to give consideration to the re-appointment of councillors to the Safer Stockport Partnership based upon the proportionality of the Council as a whole.
The Executive Meeting was advised that the political proportionality arrangements did not apply to appointments to the partnerships and that the number of seats available to the Council on the partnerships was determined by those bodies.
RESOLVED – That in light of the advice given, the referrals from the Environment & Economy Scrutiny Committee and Adults & Communities Scrutiny Committee be noted and that no further action be taken.
