Issue - meetings

Council considered a report presented by Councillor Hales, Portfolio Holder for Performance and Corporate Governance which sought approval for a change to the Council’s Constitution as recommended by the Standards Committee.  It proposed the addition of the definition of Working Day to be included as follows:

          “working day to mean Monday to Friday excluding weekends and

          bank/public holidays.”

This definition was used in many pieces of legislation including the Companies Act 2006 and the Data Protection Act 2018 and recognised by organisations such as ACAS and HMRC.

Moved by Councillor Hales and seconded by Councillor Munro

          RESOLVED that approval be given to amend the Constitution to include a definition of the term “working day” to mean Monday to Friday excluding weekends and bank/public holidays.
