Decision details

The committee considered the work programme for the 2023/24 municipal year.

Members were informed that the next scheduled meeting of the committee would be utilised for the purposes of developing its work programme for 2024/25. The Chair proposed to follow the same process for how the current work programme was developed which included a process of taking suggestions from members of the committee.

It was reported that the Scrutiny Management Board at its last meeting on 16 April agreed to the committee's request to establish an Inquiry Day to review the changes to the Lancashire Road Safety Partnership.

On the response from the Cabinet Member for Highways and Transport in relation to a report on Road Closures which was considered by the committee at its meeting held on 21 September 2023, a request was made for further information on when the policy on road closures for events and parades would be updated. Further information would be circulated to the committee to confirm the position.

Resolved: That the Environment, Economic Growth and Transport Scrutiny work programme for 2023/24, be noted.
