Agenda

To approve the Minutes of the meeting of the Panel held on 27 July 2022.

The Councillors will be asked to say if there are any items on the Agenda in which they have disclosable pecuniary interests, which would prevent them from participating in any discussion of the items or participating in any vote upon the items, or any other interests.

Most debates take place in public. This only changes when there is a need to consider certain issues, for instance, commercially sensitive information or details concerning an individual. You will be told at this point whether there are any items on the Agenda which are to be discussed in private.

The Committee will receive any petitions and hear any deputations from members of the public. A deputation is where up to five people can attend the meeting and make a presentation on some particular issue of concern. A member of the public can also hand in a petition at the meeting but that petition should relate to something on which the body has powers and responsibilities.

In accordance with Council Procedure Rule 10 (2), Members of the Public should provide at least 24 hours’ notice of presenting a deputation.

The meeting will hear any questions from the general public.

Representatives from Calderdale and Huddersfield NHS Foundation Trust, Mid Yorkshire Hospitals NHS Trust and the West Yorkshire Local Maternity System will be in attendance to present an update on the provision of maternity services in Kirklees.
