Decision Maker: Leader of the Council and Corporate Finance & Governance Portfolio Holder

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: No

Decision:

 

That the Resources and Services Overview and Scrutiny Committee’s recommendation be noted; that the Corporate Finance and Governance Portfolio Holder’s response thereto (as set out below) be endorsed; and that the recommendation contained therein be adopted:

 

“I would like to thank the Resources and Services Committee for their recommendation.

 

I understand that at the meeting, members of the Committee proposed that the Manningtree Underpass Project Performance Target Indicator fits better with the Community Leadership Overview & Scrutiny Committee’s work programme as Tendring’s role is that of ‘influence only’.

 

I further understand that following discussion with Officers, it was determined that the indicator should be submitted to the Council’s Community Leadership Overview and Scrutiny Committee; in addition to the Resources and Services Overview and Scrutiny Committee.

 

However, in accordance with the Committee’s initial request, I am recommending to Cabinet that future Performance Reports be amended so this indicator is reported to the Community Leadership Overview & Scrutiny Committee only”.

 

Reasons for the decision:

This decision would allow the Manningtree underpass project to be incorporated into future performance reports that are referred to the Community Leadership Overview and Scrutiny Committee going forward.

Alternative options considered:

Not to endorse and adopt the Portfolio Holder’s response.

Interests and Nature of Interests Declared:
