The Overview and Scrutiny Commission Annual Report 2017/18 was moved by Councillor Southgate and seconded by Councillor McCabe.

Through the Mayor, the Chief Executive advised the meeting that the 3 hour mark was approaching and that the Council would be asked to vote to extend the meeting for a further 15 minutes to conclude the remaining business on the agenda; and that if the vote fell, the guillotine would come into effect at 10.15pm and the remaining items of business would be voted on in turn with no further discussion.

The proposal was then put to a vote and was carried: votes in favour – 26; votes against – 0.

The Chief Executive advised the Council that the meeting had been extended to 10.30pm and the business would continue.

Councillor Moulton also spoke on the item.

RESOLVED:

That the Council receives the Overview and Scrutiny Commission Annual Report.
