Appointment of Independent Persons under the new Standards Regime Minutes: The Committee interviewed three applicants who had been shortlisted for the post of Independent Person under the new standards regime.
A total of four candidates had originally been scheduled to attend for interview. Following the inability of the first candidate to attend the meeting commenced at 10.00am as published, with Members dealing with Agenda Items 1 to 4, following which the meeting was adjourned for a short time and subsequently reconvened at 10.45am to conduct the interviews for the remaining three candidates.
