Minutes:

The minutes of the meeting of the Overview and Scrutiny Board held on 6th July 2021 were submitted.

 

The Chairman of the Overview and Scrutiny Board, Councillor C. Hotham, was in attendance and explained that during the meeting of the Board held on 6th July 2021 Members had discussed the subject of air quality and had been surprised to learn that this was not considered to be too concerning for Bromsgrove District.  The situation was being monitored and further action would be taken if needed.

 

A Motion in respect of car parking charges for Waseley Hill Country Park had also been discussed at this meeting.  As agreed by the Board, the Chairman had subsequently written to Worcestershire County Council about the matter.

 

The Corporate Performance Scrutiny Working Group had been suspended during the period in which the Equalities Task Group investigation had been undertaken but as this had been completed the group would start to meet again.  There had been a limited number of Members of the Board who had volunteered to serve on the group but at the latest meeting of the Board the terms of reference for the group had changed and this would create greater flexibility in terms of membership of the group.

 

RESOLVED that the minutes of the meeting of the Overview and Scrutiny Board held on 6th July 2021 be noted.
