That the Council:-

1.    Adopts the amendments to the Internal Resolution Procedure (Appendix 1 of the report).

2.    Adopts the amendments to Section 7 – Scrutiny (Appendix 2)

3.    Accepts the report on the delegated amendments (Appendix 3).

The Monitoring Officer submitted the report which proposed amendments to the Internal Resolution Procedure and Scrutiny and to report on delegated amendments to the Constitution.  It was reported that three elements to the report included how to deal with low-level complaints between members as a result of the statutory duty which was now on Group Leaders.  It was noted that the second aspect derived from a decision in the Scrutiny review to amend the Constitution which encompassed minor changes and finally changes to the delegation schemes.

There were no observations or questions.
