Further to minute 35 (14 November 2012), the Chair provided an update of the Committee’s work programme, having previously sought the views of Members as to what issues should form the basis of it. He outlined the issues that had already been identified for scrutiny and asked Members whether any new items should be added to the programme.

In response to a comment from the Chair regarding a Motion that had been previously agreed by the Council (minute 154 (16 April 2012) refers), which called for the establishment of a Member Working Party in respect of the Wirral Trade Centre, the Cabinet Member for Regeneration and Planning Strategy agreed to provide an update to the Chair direct.

The Chair referred also to the work programme item ‘Supporting People – Future Service Provision’ and advised the Committee that it was proposed to  work with the Supporting People team to undertake a desktop review, which would then form the basis of a scrutiny review exercise to be undertaken by Members.

Resolved –

(1)  That the Scrutiny Work Programme be noted.

(2)  That those Members who are able to undertake the scrutiny review in relation to Supporting People, contact the Chair/spokespersons direct.
