The
Committee considered the report of Mrs Angela Woodhouse, the Head
of Policy, Communications and Governance, which followed a request
by Members to provide further information on conducting a community
governance review.
Mrs
Woodhouse confirmed that there had been no requests from Parishes
or Councillors for the Council to undertake a review.
Following a question from a Member, Mrs Woodhouse advised that
should a community governance review be undertaken there would be
significant cost implications as a consultation would need to be
undertaken with every household affected.
Members
made the following comments:-
·
If there was a mood for change then it should come
from the bottom up.
·
The cost implications were significant.
·
There was not an appetite for any changes to be made
at this time.
RESOLVED:
That no further action be taken to undertake a
review.
