Development and Democratic Services Additional documents:
Minutes: Rosalie Hawks joined the meeting.
The Director of Organisational Development and Democratic Services introduced a report, which had been circulated in advance of the meeting, providing information about code of conduct complaints received between 3 March 2020 and 13 August 2020. During the debate the Committee confirmed that it was not necessary for the report to include details of historic complaints and this information could be removed from the appendix in future reports. The Committee would also find it useful to know what action is taken where a code of conduct complaint is referred to a group leader to deal with.
RESOLVED:
That the report be noted. |
