1.2.2 That Cabinet meetings continue to be held on the second Wednesday of every month at 6.30 pm, with the exception of the first meeting of the municipal year and the December meeting.
1.3 Reasons for Recommendation
1.3.1 The above dates for the Cabinet meetings follow the existing pattern of meetings on the second Wednesday in every month.
1.3.2 There are two slight adjustments to the existing pattern:-
· It was agreed last year that the first meeting of the Cabinet would be held at 6.30 pm on the day of the Annual Meeting of the Council so as not to clash with Planning Committee.
· The December meeting is on the third Wednesday (19 December 2012) to ensure the required financial information for the budget report is available.
1.4 Alternative Action and why not Recommended
1.4.1 It is for the Cabinet to determine their own dates and times for their meetings.
1.5 Impact on Corporate Objectives
1.5.1 Setting the dates of future Cabinet meetings at this time allows for advanced notice for the public and internal matters to be organised which helps towards our objective of Corporate and Customer excellence.
