So, let me just get back up on this computer. What do you mean, pay for that? Never let you down. It just takes a little bit of time. We've you got know, to think things like me. Just I'll read the executive summary if that's okay. At the Ordinary Meeting of dated 30th of April 2020, Councillor Joe Jurisevic was appointed as Chairperson for the Services & Organisation known as the S&O committee. Rotation of chairpersons was recommended to Councillors to allow them the opportunity to experience the role of Chairperson. This report seeks to appoint a new Chair for the S&O committee meetings so this juncture we'd like to call for nominations for that role.
