The Government has introduced a number of changes to legislation concerning the public’s right of Access to Information and the way in which decisions are taken by the Council. A fundamental aspect of these changes is the requirement to produce a forward plan of key decisions.
The County Council has defined key decisions as those which by reason of their strategic, political or financial significance are to be made by the Executive. The Executive will, at every meeting, review its forthcoming business and determine which items are to be defined as key decisions and the date of the meeting at which every such decision is to be made.
The Plan must cover a period of four months from the date of publication and will be updated every month. A revised Plan will be published on the 14th (or nearest working) day of each month for the period beginning with the 1st day of the next following month.
Where possible the County Council will attempt to keep to the dates shown in the Plan. It is quite likely, however, that some items may need to be rescheduled and new items added as new circumstances come to light.
Please ensure therefore that you refer to the most up to date Plan.
An up to date version of the Plan will available for inspection at the Chief Executive’s Department between the hours of 9.30am and 4.30pm on Mondays to Thursdays and 9.30am and 3.30pm on Fridays, free of charge
