Agenda item

To elect a Chairman in accordance with Standing Order 29.

Deputy Alastair Moss, being the only Member expressing their willingness to serve, was duly elected Chairman for the ensuing year. The Chairman took the opportunity to thank Members for their continued support in re-electing him, welcomed new Members to the committee, and also conveyed his thanks to those who had previously served on the committee.

The Chairman notified the committee that he had reordered the agenda such that item 16 would be taken in confidential session after item 22 on the published agenda.
