2. NOTED that, in accordance with Article 4(g) and paragraph 31 of the Scheme of Delegation in Table 2B of Part 3 of the Constitution, the Leader of the Council is authorised to make appointments to outside bodies where the appointment is an executive function.

3. AGREED to authorise the Chief Executive, after consultation with the Group Leaders, to appoint Members to any vacancies on outside bodies exercising non-executive functions remaining to be filled.

(Note: The right for the Council to appoint a substitute to the Cambridgeshire Health and Wellbeing Board was queried at the meeting and it was agreed that this should be reviewed and reported to the next meeting)

Council received a report which invited the approval of appointments to outside bodies in accordance with the recommendations of the Group Leaders as set out in Appendix A to the report.

It was noted that the 21^st Century Councillor Task and Finish Group established by the previous Council had requested that a review of the Council’s representation on outside bodies should be conducted. Council representatives on the outside bodies and the outside bodies themselves had been consulted upon whether District Council representation on outside bodies was still required. Recommendations had been submitted to Group Leaders as to which bodies the Council should continue to appoint to and those which the Council should no longer appoint to. Appendix B to the report showed those bodies no longer recommended for Councillor representation.

Councillor Bridget Smith proposed approval of the proposed appointments to outside bodies, as set out in Appendix A, and Councillor Neil Gough seconded the proposal.

Councillor Sue Ellington noted that Appendix A indicated that substitutes were not permitted on the Cambridgeshire Health and Wellbeing Board but she did not believe that this was correct. The Chairman indicated that this point would be clarified and reported back to the next meeting of the Council.

Council, by affirmation

RESOLVED:

1. To approve appointments to outside bodies in accordance with the recommendations of the Group Leaders as follows:
