Committee timetable review

 

Business Managers provided feedback from their discussions with groups and agreed the proposals for a revised committee timetable to be implemented after the Easter recess, incorporating one change to the original proposal (relating to the timetabling of the meeting slot for the PAPA Committee) following consultation with the Chairs’ Forum.

 

The revised timetable will provide the majority of committees with a fortnightly meeting slot but with identified reserve slots to accommodate additional meetings where required. It no longer contains protected weeks. 

 

The Business Committee will produce a report detailing the review process and the outcome.
