Issue - meetings

To consider and agree the minutes of the meeting held on 29^th November 2012.

Note from the Head of Local Democracy and Member Services

When considering items 6, 7, 8&9 the Committee will be operating in its capacity as an “Administering Authority”. When the Committee is operating in its capacity as an Administering Authority, Members must have due regard to their duty as quasi-trustees to act in the best interests of the Pension Fund above all other considerations.

 When considering Agenda Item 10, the Corporate Committee will be acting according to their responsibility for determining the council’s policies as an “Employing authority”.

RESOLVED

That the minutes of the meeting held on 29 November 2012 be approved and signed by the Chair.

The Chair introduced Nick Walkley, Chief Executive, to the meeting. Mr Walkley advised the Committee that he had commissioned an independent review into the circumstances surrounding the closure of accounts. A full report on this issue, as requested by the Committee, would therefore be considered at the next meeting of the Committee, along with an action plan.
