4.0       Councillor Wilson questioned the accuracy of paragraph 6.10 of the minutes of the Special Meeting held on the 10^th of March 2020, suggesting that it did not reflect what was said by Councillor James.

4.1      Councillor Stephens pointed to the recommendations in paragraph 6.59 of the minutes. He asked whether the recommendations had been accepted by Cabinet and asked for an update on the current status of MGL liquidation proceedings. Responding to the latter, the Managing Director explained that the liquidators were still gathering evidence from potential creditors. In answer to the first query, the Leader of the Council advised that Cabinet would review the recommendations and come back to the Committee with an answer.

4.2     Additionally, Councillor Hilton queried whether Cabinet could prepare a short report outlining how the recommendations had been implemented. The Chair reiterated the Leader of the Council ‘s comments stating that Cabinet needed to review the recommendations first. However, they would follow up this request with Officers. Similarly, the liquidator ‘s report would likely be coming for consideration at a future Committee meeting. Lastly, the Chair outlined that it was an evolving situation which

           would be kept under constant review.

4.3       RESOLVED that: Paragraph 6.10 of the minutes of the last meeting would be reviewed and amended if necessary*; Cabinet would review and then confirm whether they accepted the recommendations; the Chair would enquire with Officers about the suggested report on the implementation of the recommendations made at the meeting on the 10^th of March 2020.

*Following this meeting, a recording of the meeting was reviewed and paragraph 6.10 was found to be an accurate depiction of what was said. In light of this, both Councillor Wilson and the Chair agreed that the minutes did not need to be changed
