Remote Meeting to be held via Microsoft Teams |
|

Date: |
Monday, 7 February 2022 at 10.30 am |
|
Following on from the expiry of the Local Authorities and Police and Crime Panels (Coronavirus) (Flexibility of Local Authority and Police and Crime Panel Meetings) (England and Wales) Regulations 2020 (“the 2020 Regulations”), which allowed for committee meetings to be held remotely, the County Council resolved at its meeting on 5 May 2021 (before the expiry of the Regulations) that, for the present time, in light of the continuing Covid-19 pandemic circumstances, remote live-broadcast committee meetings should continue as informal meetings of the committee Members, with any formal decisions required being taken by the Chief Executive Officer under his emergency decision making powers and after consultation with other Officers and Members as appropriate and after taking into account any views of the relevant Committee Members and all relevant information. This approach has been periodically reviewed since that time and will be further reviewed by full Council at its February 2022 meeting.
The meeting will be available to view, once the meeting commences, via the following link – www.northyorks.gov.uk/live-meetings.

Consideration of Exclusion of the Press and Public To consider the exclusion of the public and press from the meeting during consideration of Item 11 on the grounds that it involves the likely disclosure of exempt information as defined in paragraph 3 of Part 1 of Schedule 12A to the Local Government Act 1972 (as amended by the Local Government (Access to Information)(Variation) Order 2006); namely information relating to the financial or business affairs of any particular person (including the authority holding that information). The Panel will need to consider whether the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosing the information. |

NOTES:
(a) Members are reminded of the need to consider whether they have any personal or prejudicial interests to declare on any of the items on this agenda and, if so, of the need to explain the reason(s) why they have any personal interest when making a declaration.
The Panel Secretariat officer will be pleased to advise on interest issues. Ideally their views should be sought as soon as possible and preferably prior to the day of the meeting, so that time is available to explore adequately any issues that might arise.
Public Question Time
The questioner must provide an address and contact telephone number when submitting a request. The request must set out the question in full. The question/statement:
1. must relate to the Panel’s role and responsibilities;
2. must not be substantially the same as a question which has been put at a meeting in the past 6 months;
3. must not be defamatory, frivolous, vexatious or offensive;
4. must not require the disclosure of confidential or exempt information; and
5. must not refer to any matter of a personal nature.
At the meeting: Once the question has been approved, the questioner will be contacted to make arrangements to attend the meeting to put the question.
Any questions will normally be answered at the meeting but in some cases this might not be practicable and a written answer will be provided within 14 days of the meeting.
