Report of the Town Clerk.

The Committee considered a report of the Town Clerk concerning the work of the Local Government Association (LGA) and the City Corporation’s involvement with it.

A Member pointed out that the City Corporation was able to nominate a representative with voting rights to attend the LGA’s Annual General Assembly and that it was important for the representative to be formally appointed. He believed this to be the case in other local authorities. He therefore suggested that current informal arrangement be looked at with a view to the City Corporation appointing a formal LGA representative. Members supported this suggestion.

RESOLVED – that the content of the report be noted and that the current informal arrangement be reviewed with a view to appointing a formal City Corporation representative to participate in the LGA’s activities.
