Councillor Jenny Hannaby declared a personal interest in relation to Motion 7 as Chairman of the Wantage Hospital League of Friends in the event that there was discussion on hospitals.
Councillor Fatemian sought advice from the Monitoring Officer on whether in relation to Motion 8 he had a non-pecuniary prejudicial interest by reason of his employers being based in the Eastern Arc. The Monitoring Officer advised that Councillor Fatemian was not affected to any greater degree than any other member and in her opinion at this time it did not constitute a prejudicial interest. It was for Councillor Fatemian to decide whether he should abstain or not.

Decision:
With the consent of Council Councillor Webber moved his motion amended at the suggestion of Councillor David Bartholomew as shown below in strikethrough and bold italics:
The Council’s Procurement procedures have been the subject of concern for some time. At the latest Audit and Governance Committee meeting, the subject of a claim made over a breach of Procurement procedures by the Council was considered. This breach of procedure has cost the Council, and hence Oxfordshire taxpayers, £1.6 million in compensation and legal costs.
Council notes that the role of the Audit & Governance Committee is to ensure that the Council's procedures are robust, that taxpayer's money is controlled properly and that it is spent wisely.
The timeline provided to the
Audit and Governance Committee meeting on this matter shows that
the Portfolio Holder and the Chair of Audit and Governance were
both aware of the breach and cost of out of court settlement in
February 2020, but and as an independent report was in
progress, the Audit Working Group Committee was
only informed in December 2020. January
2021. Council believes that by withholding this information from
the Audit and Governance Committee for 11 months, the Executive
failed to act in the interest of Oxfordshire
taxpayers.
Council commits to ensuring that, in future, in the interests of transparency and good governance, any breaches of procedure are made known to members of the Audit and Governance Committee as soon as they are known to the Executive, and that committee members are allowed to see any reports relating to such breaches of procedure (redacted as necessary), following any reasonable request from members of that committee and assuming there is no legal reason why such documents should be with-held.
Following a vote the Motion as amended was agreed unanimously.

Decision:
With the consent of Council, Councillor Gawrysiak moved his motion as amended at the suggestion of Councillor Hibbert-Biles as shown below in bold italics:
The County Council will consider environmental weight restrictions across the County, particularly areas which are subject to significant levels of HGV traffic, prioritising the towns of Burford, Chipping Norton and Henley-on-Thames. However, the county council is very unlikely to have any funding available for this in the coming years so any schemes would need to be funded through development and/or by local communities, businesses and town/parish councils.
This policy clearly states that Henley is subject to significantly high levels of HGV traffic. Henley is also an AQMA area which means we have significant pollution.
Council calls upon the Corporate Director for Environment and Place to complete the necessary studies for an environmental weight restriction for Henley, in the event that funding to cover the whole cost is secured through development and/or by local communities, businesses and town/parish councils and would not fall on the OCC.
The motion as amended was carried by 40 votes for, with 3 against and 15 abstentions.
