The Democratic and Electoral Services Manager introduced the report and explained that the appointment to outside bodies represented a large administrative burden under the current constitution, where appointments made by the Executive were first required to be considered by a Policy Advisory Committee. The transfer of responsibility for specific outside body appointments to this Committee would streamline the appointment process.

RESOLVED: That the following recommendations be made to Council:

1. The table contained within Appendix 2 to the report be approved; and

2. The current list of outside bodies contained within the Constitution (Appendix C, Part C1), be replaced with the table contained within Appendix 2 to the report, and moved to Appendix 2, Part B4 of the Constitution.
