Comments
4. Setting a meeting schedule helps meet the requirements of:
· clause 19, Schedule 7 of the LGA on general provisions for meetings, which requires the chief executive to give notice in writing to members of the time and place of meetings. Such notification may be provided by the adoption of a schedule of meetings.
· sections 46, 46(A) and 47 in Part 7 of the LGOIMA, which requires that meetings are publicly notified, agendas and reports are available at least two working days before a meeting and are open to the public.
5. Adopting a business meeting schedule also allows for a planned approach to workloads and ensures that members have clarity about their commitments.
Consideration
Local board views and implications
6. The local board passed a resolution at its 28 February business meeting re-establishing the Te Oro Committee. This report sets the meeting schedule for the committee and ensures that legislative responsibility as stated in paragraph 3 is met.
Māori impact statement
7. There is no anticipated impact of this schedule on maori. The committee composition includes one mana whenua seat which is filled by Ken Kerehoma (primary) and Emily Karaka (alternate).
Implementation
