External Overview and Scrutiny Committee

Future Work Programme and Forward Plan of Key Decisions

Report of: Acting Overview and Scrutiny Manager

1.      Future Work Programme

1.1     The Future Work Programme for the Committee is attached at Appendix A; Members are requested to consider this to ensure that it is appropriate and covers all issues Members currently wish to consider within the Committee’s remit.

2.      Forward Plan

2.1     At the meeting of the Corporate Services Overview and Scrutiny Committee on 3 February 2009, Members considered the Forward Plan of Key Decisions and agreed that “this should be a standing item on the agenda to ensure important issues were dealt with in a proactive, rather than reactive, manner.”  Those sections of the Forward Plan relevant to each Committee will therefore now be included on each Committee agenda under the “Future Work Programme” item.

2.2     The Forward Plan for 1 November 2009 – 28 February 2010 contains no decisions relevant to the External Overview and Scrutiny Committee.
