Decision details

Report of the Director of Governance, Legal and HR detailing the Executive

Appointments for 2023-2024.

(i)  That the Executive Appointments for the 2023/24 Municipal Year be approved as set out in the attached revised Register; and

(ii)  That all appointments be for one year save where the terms of reference and or constitution of the body or organisation concerned specify the duration of an appointment or where the decision on any nomination by the City Council to their membership is reserved to the body or organisation concerned to determine the appointment or continuation of appointments, in light of any changes in City Council Administration

Member appointments are required to a number of statutory and best practice

bodies, as well as a number of external organisations with which the Council

has strategic or significant community links.

Under the constitution or terms of reference in respect of some outside

organisation’s appointments are in some cases specified as having a term of

office/appointment longer than one year or are nominations, the final decision

on appointment lying with the body itself. In such cases when a change of

Administration occurs, and the appointment term has not expired and is of

significance to the incoming administration that member/appointee should be

encouraged to step down in favour of a new appointee from the incoming

administration but noting that the final decision in some cases lies with the

organisation or outside body concerned.

No other options are presented, it is a matter for the Cabinet to determine

whether it wishes to approve the revised appointments and be represented on

all the bodies set out in the attached revised Register of Appointments.

None.
