Full Council week

As mentioned last week, its April's Full Council meeting this coming Thursday - main agenda can be found here ...

... difficult to judge how long the principal decision-making body of the Council will last this month - precious little new business of any substance on the agenda yet again: 'trams' and the 'hub initiative' being the two main exceptions. But quite a few questions and motions; several of which I'm sure will attract some deputations to the meeting?

It does appear to be the pattern now - as much formal (and politically difficult) business is being kept away from the Chamber as possible; given the 'challenging mathematics' of the Council make-up.

Little wonder questions and motions are being used so extensively to try and extract political information ...
