3.1 Your group spokespersons have looked at the topics the committee has added to its work programme over recent meetings. They were mindful that following the May elections, there will be new faces and (probably) increased numbers round the table. The attached shows the revamped list of items they now suggest be recommended to the new committee

3.2 In coming up with this proposal, Group Spokespersons had in mind that planning for each item should have a strong overview perspective to help new members grasp the broader context. As Covid pressures change, affecting “business as usual” and service development activity, the suggested timing of items will inevitably need to be revised.

4.0 Recommendations

4.1 The committee is recommended to consider the attached work programme and determine whether any further amendments should be made at this stage.
