This will need a change of Structure and Functions\, but I feel it will give a better balance to the proposed Scrutiny Committee. \n  \nThe Scrutiny side of any major decision in my opinion is imperative and should include a Call – In procedure that requires two thirds of the Committee present on the night of the Scrutiny Committee meeting. \n  \nCouncillor Dannatt seconded the motion. \n  \nRESOLVED under Standing Order 10.a.vi to refer the motion to the Management and Finance Committee for further consideration. \n  \n  \n\n MOTION MOVED BY COUNCILLOR KEY\n\n  \nThe Council to look closely at the decision we made on Roses Sports Ground and to scrutinise the Lease that was agreed between the Town Council and the Gainsborough Trinity Foundation to make sure that both parties are doing what was agreed. \n  \nNo seconder was forthcoming. \n  \nMOTION FALLEN \n  \n  \n12 \n  \n  \n\n MOTION MOVED BY COUNCILLOR KEY\n\n  \nI constantly complain that I cannot get into meetings since we have gone to remote meetings and I do not think I am the only Councillor affected. \nOn 8th Sept I tried to get into the Community Services Committee meeting\, because I am not a Member of that committee\, I would still have to ask the Chair to speak on an issue. \nI was amazed to be told by the Clerk that you have to contact him before 5 O’clock the previous day to ask a question. \nTHIS IS NOT IN OUR STANDING ORDERS \nRecently I have not been able to get into a Personnel Committee meeting\, on Weds 9th Sept although I am a Member of that committee\, I missed the whole meeting. \nOn 15th Sept at a Management & Finance Committee meeting of which I am a Member\, I could not get in to start with and when I did get in after 15 mins\, the agenda item was 6 so I had missed two thirds of the Meeting. \nI am sure that I am not the only person having problems and we also have an Elected Councillor who is kept out of remote meetings all together.  I believe that the issues need looking at to try and make sure Elected Members can get into meetings to do their duty. \nAlso at the last Full Council Meeting it was stated by the Leader that things are now far better on remote meetings\, more Councillors can participate at meetings\, this does not seem to be the case looking at numbers in the meetings mentioned above. \n  \nCouncillor O’Connor seconded the motion. \n  \nRESOLVED under Standing Order 10.a.vi to refer the motion to the Management and Finance Committee for further consideration. \n  \n  \n            EXCLUSION OF PRESS AND PUBLIC \n  \nDue to the confidential nature\, members RESOLVED to exclude the press and public from the meeting during consideration of the next item in accordance with the Public Bodies (Admission to Meetings) Act 1960. \n  \n  \n\n TOWN CLERKS REPORT (Paper C)\n\n  \nNote: Councillor Dobbie arrived at the meeting at 7.26pm \n  \nRESOLVED to NOTE the matters contained in the report. \n  \n  \n  \n  \nMeeting concluded at 7.31pm

This will need a change of Structure and Functions\, but I feel it will give a better balance to the proposed Scrutiny Committee. \n  \nThe Scrutiny side of any major decision in my opinion is imperative and should include a Call – In procedure that requires two thirds of the Committee present on the night of the Scrutiny Committee meeting. \n  \nCouncillor Dannatt seconded the motion. \n  \nRESOLVED under Standing Order 10.a.vi to refer the motion to the Management and Finance Committee for further consideration. \n   \n\n MOTION MOVED BY COUNCILLOR KEY\n\n  \nThe Council to look closely at the decision we made on Roses Sports Ground and to scrutinise the Lease that was agreed between the Town Council and the Gainsborough Trinity Foundation to make sure that both parties are doing what was agreed. \n  \nNo seconder was forthcoming. \n  \nMOTION FALLEN \n  \n\n MOTION MOVED BY COUNCILLOR KEY\n\n  \nI constantly complain that I cannot get into meetings since we have gone to remote meetings and I do not think I am the only Councillor affected. \nOn 8th Sept I tried to get into the Community Services Committee meeting\, because I am not a Member of that committee\, I would still have to ask the Chair to speak on an issue. \nI was amazed to be told by the Clerk that you have to contact him before 5 O’clock the previous day to ask a question. \nTHIS IS NOT IN OUR STANDING ORDERS \nRecently I have not been able to get into a Personnel Committee meeting\, on Weds 9th Sept although I am a Member of that committee\, I missed the whole meeting. \nOn 15th Sept at a Management & Finance Committee meeting of which I am a Member\, I could not get in to start with and when I did get in after 15 mins\, the agenda item was 6 so I had missed two thirds of the Meeting. \nI am sure that I am not the only person having problems and we also have an Elected Councillor who is kept out of remote meetings all together.  I believe that the issues need looking at to try and make sure Elected Members can get into meetings to do their duty. \nAlso at the last Full Council Meeting it was stated by the Leader that things are now far better on remote meetings\, more Councillors can participate at meetings\, this does not seem to be the case looking at numbers in the meetings mentioned above. \n  \nCouncillor O’Connor seconded the motion. \n  \nRESOLVED under Standing Order 10.a.vi to refer the motion to the Management and Finance Committee for further consideration. \n  \n            EXCLUSION OF PRESS AND PUBLIC \n  \nDue to the confidential nature\, members RESOLVED to exclude the press and public from the meeting during consideration of the next item in accordance with the Public Bodies (Admission to Meetings) Act 1960. \n  \n\n TOWN CLERKS REPORT (Paper C)\n\n  \nNote: Councillor Dobbie arrived at the meeting at 7.26pm \n  \nRESOLVED to NOTE the matters contained in the report. \n  \nMeeting concluded at 7.31pm \n
