That the members be appointed to serve on committees for 2018-2019 including their chairmen and vice-chairmen as set out in the appendix to the report, subject to decisions on the previous agenda item (1) regarding political balance arrangements and subject to the nominations proposed by party group leaders.

The Annual Council received and considered the agenda report and its appendix for this item.

Mrs Hamilton explained that the appendix showed the nominations which had been put forward by the political groups, with changes from last year shown for the Corporate Governance and Audit Committee, the General Licensing Committee, the Alcohol and Entertainment Licensing Committee, the Investigation and Disciplinary Committee and the Overview and Scrutiny Committee. She pointed out that there were two small changes to be made to the numbers shown for the Investigation and Disciplinary Committee and the Appeals Committee (page 31): in each case the number of Conservative members should be shown as 4 and not 6.

The Chairman ascertained that no changes were being proposed by any member to the memberships of committees.

Mrs Hamilton (Chairman of the Council) formally moved the recommendation and this was seconded by Mrs Graves (Vice-Chairman of the Council).
