  Minor Constitutional Changes to be Included in the Annual Report to May Council

  

  Report of the Borough Solicitor

   

  At every annual meeting of the Council, the Borough Solicitor submits a report to Council that seeks to:

   

  • Establish the committees for the next municipal year

  • Appoint members to them

  • Confirm the terms of the Constitution and delegations to officers

   

  The opportunity is also taken to make some minor updates to the Constitution. As the annual Council meeting is primarily ceremonial, it is important as far as possible that discussion at the meeting does not become overly political or the subject to any serious debate. To that end, any changes proposed at this meeting are designed to be nothing more than a tidying up and clarification. They do not therefore seek to make any significant changes in decision making or impact the rights and duties of Members.
