In the light of the Chief Executive’s decision of 22 July 2021 to reinstate informal virtual meetings, made in consultation with groups leaders, I have made a consequential decision to reinstate temporary standing orders as a framework to govern informal virtual meetings. At the same time, I have amended the constitution to reinstate the delegations granted to officers at Full Council on 4 May 2021 to enable decisions to be made after taking into account the views of members at informal virtual meetings.
