RECOMMENDATION:
To review the table as required by the Local Government and Housing Act 1989 in the light of the change mentioned in Note 1 below. (*Only the political groups have a specific entitlement to seats)
Note 1: The Local Government and Housing Act - Section 15(5)(d) - requires proportionality to be calculated by way of the size of each political group in relation to the membership of the Council, ie as 78ths. The reduction of one in the size of the Conservative Group, therefore, has no direct impact on the entitlements of the Liberal Democrat and Labour Groups.
Note 2: The River Hamble Harbour Management Committee is not yet operating with 10 members as agreed previously by the Council. Accordingly the 6th Conservative seat remains unfilled.
Note: 3 The allocations below are not affected:
