It was reported that the since the last meeting the Director General (Crime and Policing Group) at the Home Office had written to the Chief Executive of the County Council to confirm that the Home Secretary had formally approved the co-option of the three additional elected representatives to the Panel. The Panel was therefore fully constituted with 20 members each having full voting rights.

It was also noted that Burnley Borough Council had confirmed that Councillor T Kennedy had replaced Councillor Mottershead on the Panel.

Resolved:

1.  That the confirmation of the appointment of an additional three elected representatives by the Home Secretary be noted.

2.  That it be noted that following the confirmation specified in 1 above the Police and Crime Panel for Lancashire is now fully constituted on the basis of 18 elected representatives and 2 independent co-opted members, all of whom have full voting rights.
