Minutes for City Council Extraordinary Meeting meeting, Jan 28 2009, 4.00PM official page

The Chief Executive to invite declarations of interest from members. 

Members please note that there are three ways of declaring interests at Council meetings:-

(1)     If you have been appointed by the Council to one of the outside bodies on the list (to the back of the Chamber), and there is an item which clearly relates to that body, then it is sufficient if your name is on the list that is displayed, and Council agrees to note the list.  It is up to you to check that your name is displayed.

(2)     You can write or email Committee Services before the meeting setting out your interest and the item to which it relates.  These details will be included on the list displayed, and it is then sufficient if Council agrees to note the list.

(3)     You can also make an oral declaration of your interest when these are invited at the start of the meeting, or as soon as possible after then if you realise later that you have an interest.  You can do this even if your interest is on one of the lists, for example if you want to draw particular attention to your interest.  You should do so if your interest would not be clear to members of the public from the lists.

Can I therefore ask members to confirm that they have read the list of personal interests and the list of nominations to outside bodies at the back of the Chamber, and to agree its contents please?

Can I also now seek any further declarations which are not included on the list?

In all instances Members should indicate whether the interest is personal or prejudicial and state the reasons for the interest.
