Report by:  Assistant Head of Legal & Democratic Services

This report seeks approval to the appointment of a new Member Champion for Locality Working.

The Cabinet is RECOMMENDED to appoint a Councillor as Member Champion for Locality Working.

Cabinet considered a report seeking approval to the appointment of a new Member Champion for Locality Working.

Councillor Patrick, Leader of the Opposition, suggested that it might be better to have a number of member champions to cover each of the areas.

The Leader stated that the suggestion would be considered in the context of the proposal, which was about championing locality working rather than championing any particular area. It did not prevent any member from championing their area.

RESOLVED:             to approve the concept of appointing a Councillor or Councillors as Member Champion(s) for Locality Working.
