To consider a report of the Chief Executive on Exceptions to the Call-in (Requisition) Procedure (attached).

Report AGREED without division.

A report of the Chief Executive gave details of the one recent exception to the Call-in (requisition) procedure. This had been granted in relation to a non-key decision of the Cabinet Member for Children & Learning to waive standing orders for the award of a works contract directly to Valuegrade for an extension to the 16+ SEN facility of the Avelon Road Centre. The exception had been granted by the Chairman of the Overview and Scrutiny Board due to an urgent need to make provision for additional students between 16 and 25 with special educational needs.

The report was AGREED without division and it was RESOLVED:

That the report be noted.
