Review of Complaint against a CBC Councillor Minutes:
The Sub-Committee considered the request for a review of the decision taken by the Monitoring Officer on 19 April 2013 relating to a complaint about Cllr Aldis.
The complaint concerned Cllr Aldis’ refusal to speak to the complainant regarding a planning application which had yet to be determined by the Development Management Committee of which Cllr Aldis was a Member.
The Sub-Committee agreed that the Monitoring Officer’s decision of ‘No Breach’ was sound and the response from Cllr Aldis to the complainant had been legitimate having regard to Cllr Aldis being a member of the Development Management Committee.
RESOLVED
That the decision taken by the Monitoring Officer that there had been no breach of the Council’s Code of conduct was sound and no further action should be taken in respect of the complaint.
