GENERAL COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                                     28 APRIL 2014

  6     REASONS FOR REFERRAL TO GENERAL COMMITTEE

  If a Committee chooses not to deal with an agenda item and instead refer it to the General
  Committee, they shall indicate the reasons for the referral and those reasons shall be listed in the
  General Committee Agenda as a guide for all Councillors.
   Likewise, a request for referral by a non-Committee Councillor must include the reasons for the
   referral to General Committee.

  7     UNLISTED BUSINESS IS POOR GOVERNANCE

  Items of business should not be dealt with by the Committee unless the item is listed on the
  agenda circulated to all Councillors.
  Late reports should not be referred to the Committees, General Committee or Ordinary Meeting
  unless approved by the CEO.     The CEO will discuss with the Mayor before referring any late
  reports to a Council Meeting. As a general rule, late reports will only be referred due to timing or
  emergent issues.
