Well as promised in a previous post here’s a writeup of part of last Thursday’s Cabinet meeting, well at least some highlights.
Item 8 (Chief Executives Office) along with its its appendix have been deferred to a future meeting.
Cllr Jeff Green wanted to waive call-in on item 27 regarding St. Anselms College but was given legal advice by Surjit Tour that he couldn’t because the officers who have to agree to it to waive call-in weren’t present.
The nomination for Mayor and Deputy Mayor for 2012/2013 were as follows:-
Mayor: Cllr Gerry Ellis
Deputy Mayor: Cllr Dave Mitchell
Bill Norman (Director of Law, HR and Asset Management), Ian Coleman (Director of Finance) and Jim Wilkie (Chief Executive) were all absent from the Cabinet meeting.
Err, let’s see, Craig Manning has written about item 16 for the Wirral Globe which can be read online. Certainly Cllr Jeff Green wasn’t happy with the news, but Social Services has a reputation for overspending by £millions each year.
