Report of Assistant Director Law and Governance

The Assistant Director Law and Governance submitted a report (previously circulated) requesting that consideration be given to this Scrutiny Committee’s work programme and to consider any additional areas which Members would like to suggest should be included in the previously approved work programme.

Councillor B Jones requested that an item on the availability of wheelchair accessible taxis be included in the work programme and a Quad of Aims would be submitted for Members consideration; and Members were informed of a safety campaign that was being run over the festive period to address safety concerns in relation to taxi availability for the night time economy.

It was suggested that the Darlington Cultural Strategy be brought to the next meeting of this Scrutiny Committee, prior to consideration by Cabinet.

RESOLVED – That the work programme be updated to reflect discussions.
