Following the debacle of the City Council's budget meeting earlier this month, along with other council group leaders and the Lord Provost and Depute Lord Provost, I met with the Chief Executive and the Depute Chief Executive this morning about the running of council meetings.
As the Evening Telegraph reports tonight, the meeting was positive and constructive. As well as discussing procedures at council committee meetings, we also covered the forthcoming review of scrutiny arrangements within the council, a review I believe to be welcome.
