Notice of Motion regarding the new Constitution for North Yorkshire Council
“The proposed constitution contains clauses which markedly limit the time allowed for questions and statements by members in Council meetings to both the Leader and to members of the Executive.
· Clause10.2 paragraph (c) in the section entitled COUNCIL PROCEDURE RULES, refers to questions and statements to the Leader and limits them to a total of 10minutes.
· Clause 10.3 paragraph (d) in the same section, similarly limits questions and statements to Executive member to a total of 5 minutes.
Were these two clauses to be implemented then effective questioning in the public forum of both the Leader and Executive Members would be guillotined.
Council therefore agrees to remove these two clauses from the proposed constitution.”
Proposer – County Councillor Bryn Griffiths
Seconder – County Councillor Stuart Parsons
