Agenda

The Chair will consider the admission of any late items of urgent business.  Where the item is already included on the agenda, it will appear under that item but new items of urgent business will be dealt with at item 7.

A member with a personal interest in a matter who attends a meeting of the authority at which the matter is considered must disclose to that meeting the existence and nature of that interest at the commencement of that consideration, or when the interest becomes apparent.

A member with a personal interest in a matter also has a prejudicial interest in that matter if the interest is one which a member of the public with knowledge of the relevant facts would reasonably regard as so significant that it is likely to prejudice the member's judgment of the public interest and if this interest affects their financial position or the financial position of a person or body as described in paragraph 8 of the Code of Conduct and/or if it relates to the determining of any approval, consent, licence, permission or registration in relation to them or any person or body described in paragraph 8 of the Code of Conduct

To confirm and sign the Minutes of the meeting held on 17 December 2007.

To consider the conclusions and recommendations from the results of the scrutiny review into Waste Collection, Recycling and Disposal [minutes of previous meetings attached].

The sharing of lessons learnt from reviews is a useful means of developing further best practice.  It is therefore proposed that each separate scrutiny review should contain an evaluation and learning element.

To deal with any items of urgent business admitted at Item 2 above.
