Chapter
If the Executive or one of its Committees meets to discuss a key decision to be taken collectively, with an officer other than a political assistant present, within twenty-eight days of the date by which it is to be decided, then it must also comply with Rules 1-11 unless Rule 18 (urgency - general exception) or Rule 19 (urgency - special urgency) apply. This requirement does not include meetings whose sole purpose is for officers to brief Members.
The Executive or one of its Committees may meet in private if it meets with officers for the purposes only of briefing.
Decisions made by Officers
Where officers are taking delegated key decisions, they must follow the procedure set out above for decisions taken by Individual Members of the Executive. This includes ensuring the decision is taken on the basis of a written report setting out key legal, financial and corporate implications.
Non-key decisions taken by officers are not subject to call in.
Nothing in these rules relating to the taking of a decision by individual officers shall require them to disclose confidential or exempt information or the advice of a political adviser or assistant.
Rule 23 must be read in conjunction with the Recording of Officers’ decisions at [currently Part C section 7 of this Constitution].
