Prior
to moving the recommendation, Councillor Burton, the Leader of the
Council, stated that he wished to correct an error in the report of
the Independent Remuneration Panel. The
hourly rate referred to in paragraph 4.1.11 of the report should
read £15.49, not £19.09.
It was
moved by Councillor Burton, seconded by Councillor Mrs Blackmore,
and:
RESOLVED: That the Members’ Allowance
Scheme recommended by the Independent Remuneration Panel,
with the exception of the Special
Responsibility Allowance for the Leader of the Opposition, be
adopted.
