Agenda item

Report of the Town Clerk.

The subcommittee considered arrangements for member inductions following the ‘all-out’ elections in March 2025.

The members agreed that the majority of sessions would be of interest to all members and were informed that all sessions would be available to the wider court. Members indicated that some sessions, for example code of conduct training and what to expect as a member, would be beneficial to have pre-elections to ensure that those running are aware of the demands and obligations of the post. In response to a question, the subcommittee was informed that the budget was modest due to the fact hat most training is done in-house.

Suggestions for session topics included The City’s relationship to the Liveries, Ward structure, and the role of Ward Deputies.

RESOLVED, that the member induction arrangements for 2025 be agreed and implemented.
