Councillor committee and external organisation representation

Delegated Committees of Council have delegated power from the Council as set out in an Instrument of Delegation. The Instrument outlines the extent and limitations of the Delegated Committee’s powers and functions with these to be exercised in accordance with the guidelines or policies adopted by the Council.

An Advisory Committee is a Committee established by Council to provide advice to it or its delegate. It considers issues and makes recommendations to the full Council.  Advisory Committees have no delegated power and so their recommendations need to be adopted or endorsed by the full Council at a Council meeting before they can be implemented.
