Scarborough Council's new committee structure set to involve all councillors in decision making

Cllr Siddons gave an update on the committee plans today

The leader of Scarborough Borough Council has said that his plan to involve all councillors in the authority’s decision-making process is making progress.

Cllr Steve Siddons said when he was elected as leader following May’s local elections that he wanted to move away from the cabinet-led structure of the previous Conservative administration.

The Labour leader then halved the number of cabinet members to four and promised that new committees would be set up to allow all councillors to be involved in the process of making decisions.
