6 Appointment
to the Gambling and TAB Venue Policy Hearing Committee
|
|

At its meeting on 17 October
2017, the Planning and Environment Committee appointed Councillor David
Benson-Pope (Chair), Councillor Marie Laufiso and Councillor Conrad Stedman
to a hearing committee to consider submissions received on its draft Gambling
and TAB Venue Policy, following public consultation. The hearing was
scheduled for the morning of 20 February 2018 starting at 9.00 a.m.
Due to another Council
commitment, Councillor Benson-Pope was now unable to attend the hearing on 20
February. After discussions with the Mayor, Councillor Aaron Hawkins was
proposed to replace Councillor Benson-Pope on the hearing committee and to
chair the committee.
Council was asked to consider
the report under urgency, given the late change in availability of Councillor
Benson-Pope, and acknowledging that some submitters had booked flights to
attend the hearing.

Committee, replacing Councillor David Benson-Pope.
