Consultation on new Executive Arrangements

Overview

Under provisions of the Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Act 2007 the Council had to choose a new form of Executive Arrangements before 31 December 2009 with the new arrangements coming into effect after the 2010 elections. The Council indicated its preferred option as the Leader and Cabinet model and resolved on 14 July 2009 to put this forward for public consultation.

Consultation was undertaken using the Council's website, community noticeboards, listing in the consultation diary, senior management briefing, and notice in 'The Digest' (a weekly free subscription newsletter on democratic processes, sent to some 500 Councillors, officers and members of the public).
