Report of the Interim Executive Director for Environment.

The Committee received a report of the Interim Executive Director for Environment, concerning a required adjustment due to an unexpected increase for veterinary inspections contracted to a third party.

It was queried whether a certain percentage of adjustment to charges could be agreed under Delegated Authority, in conjunction with the Chairman and Deputy Chairman, to build a degree of flexibility and be able to be reactive to charges. The response was that officers would have to look further into the possibility of this query.

RESOLVED – That Members approve the adjusted Animal Health Team fees described in section 5 of the report and listed in Appendix 1.
