Report of Cllr Duncan McGregor, Portfolio Holder for Corporate Governance

Council considered a report in relation to the revised Mileage and Related Travel Expenses Policy.  The Policy had been recommended to Council for approval from the Union/Employee Consultation Committee held on 6^th February 2020.

Councillor James Watson proposed an amendment to the last sentence in the first paragraph on the introductory page of the Policy that the following wording highlighted in bold be added;

This approach supports the Council’s Climate Change and Transformation Agendas and as such this should be considered when the Members mileage related travel policy is reviewed. 

The Deputy Monitoring Officer advised Councillor Watson that the Policy was specific to officers and as such his suggested amendment did not fit into the Policy. 

Moved by Councillor Duncan McGregor and seconded by Councillor Steve Fritchley

RESOLVED that the revised Mileage and Related Travel Expenses Policy be approved.
