COLAT Trustee Appointment

Report of the Town Clerk.

Minutes:

The Committee considered a report of the Town Clerk in respect of the appointment of a Trustee to the City of London Academies Trust (CoLAT). 

 

The Chair thanked the outgoing appointee, Andrew McMurtrie, for his hard work and commitment to CoLAT over the past several years. It was advised that the Trust had suggested the appointment of Deputy Edward Lord as a replacement for Andrew McMurtrie and Members expressed support for the proposal.

 

In response to a wider query concerning the process generally for volunteering for this and similar positions in the future, it was suggested that the general approach should be considered through the Governance Review process.

 

RESOLVED: That Deputy Edward Lord be appointed as a Sponsor Trustee of the City of London Academies Trust Board of Trustees, for a four-year term commencing 10 July 2020.
