Agenda item

The Committee considered a report of the Interim Head of Legal and Democratic Services which informed Members of the action points arising from the regional meeting of the Chairs/Deputy Chairs and Independent Persons of Governance/Standards Committees (for copy see file of Minutes).

A number of action points were developed to form the basis for discussion and these were set out in the report. The Governance Solicitor advised that the regional meeting of Monitoring Officers had been re-scheduled and therefore an update on the action points would be provided at the next Standards Committee. Councillor Kellett stated that the need for advice and training for Members on the use of social media was highlighted by many of those present at the meeting.

Resolved:

That the content of the report be noted.
