To receive the report of the Town Clerk

The Committee received the report of the Town Clerk which informed Members that as part of the post-implementation review of the changes made to the governance arrangements in 2011 it was agreed that all Committees should review their terms of reference annually. This would enable any proposed changes to be considered in time for the reappointment of Committees by the Court of Common Council.

Members noted the Terms of Reference with one change made to clarify the quorum of the Committee with the following sentence being added to:

“For the purpose of non-Epping Forest related business the quorum must consist of five Committee Members who must be Members of the Court of Common Council.”

Resolved: That Members agreed the Terms of Reference for the Committee, with one vote against the recommendation to approve the Terms of Reference.
