Standing Orders |

Letter from the Chair of the Standards of Conduct Committee Minutes: Business
Committee considered a letter by the Standards of Conduct Committee with regards to amending Standing Order
22.5. The letter outlines the Committee’s opinion that substitutes should be
allowed in instances where a Member may be party to a complaint in ways other
than as the subject of it. These
‘alternate members’ should be agreed by the Assembly at the same time as
election of the permanent committee member.
Business
Managers agreed in principle to the Standards Committee’s recommendation that
Standing Orders be amended. The
Secretariat will bring forward detailed proposals for Business Managers’
consideration at a future meeting. |
