Next week's full council meeting promises to be the most fun we've had in a long time. Motion proposed by Councillor Wallis, seconded by Councillor Long and supported by Councillors Robinson, Rowe and Rushworth:-

"The Local Government Act 1972 sets out that the Chairman of the Council is the civic head of the authority and is given precedence at civic events (this is not the case where there is an elected mayor or in the case of royal events where the Lord Lieutenant takes precedence). Therefore this Council recognises the intent of the Act and ensures that the Chairman, as the civic head of Cornwall Council, is lead and in attendance, at all events relating to the Olympic Torch Relay including the receiving of the Flame at RNAS Culdrose, at Lands End, at Truro and, if possible, at the handing over at the border with Devon and, beyond that at all future events of this stature and significance."
