Hampshire County Council

16 May 2002 Item 7

Appointments

Report of the Chief Executive

Contact: David Hinxman, Head of the Committee Division. Tel: 847339

1. Summary

1.1. This report concerns various matters concerning appointments which require the approval of the County Council.

2. Appointments

2.1. Part 1 of the Local Government and Housing Act 1989 requires the County Council each year to review proportionality on committees. The existing proportionality arrangements were agreed by the Council in September 2001 as follows:

    Total Seats Conservative Liberal Democrat Labour

    263 163 68 32

2.2. On the agenda for this meeting of the Council there are two proposals which

affect the allocations between political groups: the formal establishment of an

Educational Special Needs Panel of 8 members (5:2:1) and the merger of two

    Transport Strategy Panels into one so reducing allocations by 3:2:0. The Inspection Advisory Panel (2:1:1) has also been wound up following the transfer of its responsibilities to National Care Standards Commission.

2.3 The revised totals are proportionate and are as follows:

    Total Seats Conservative Liberal Democrat Labour

    262 163 67 32

3. Chairmen and Vice-Chairmen of Committees

3.1. Standing Order 34 (b) requires the Council, at its Annual Meeting to appoint the Chairman and a Vice-Chairman for every committee of the Council, all of whom shall be members of the Council.
