The Councillors'
Bulletin is a weekly circular containing information for the
councillors about forthcoming meetings and events, links to meeting
minutes meetings and agendas, decisions made by the executive
(members of the Cabinet) and officers, and more.
The Chairman of the Scrutiny and
Overview Committee or any five other Councillors may call in any
executive decision for review within five working days of the
publication of the Bulletin. This includes decisions made by the
Cabinet or by any member of the Cabinet individually. Any decision
not called in by the end of this time period may then be
implemented. Detailed information about the call in procedure can
be found in the
Constitution (Part
2: Article 6.02 and
Part 4: Scrutiny and Overview Committee Procedure Rules). Basic
information is also available in the
Public Guide to the Constitution under
the heading Decision-Making.
The Councillors' Bulletin is published
on the website every Thursday.
Archived copies of the Weekly Bulletin from 30 May 2001 – 21
December 2005 are also available.
