Subject: Mr Andrew Webb – appointment to outside bodies
Dear FoI Officer
I have been reading the Executive meeting agenda for 3rd August regarding the Council’s constitution.
Apparently appointments to outside bodies have to be approved. My question is: Who agreed to Mr. Andrew Webb being on so many outside committees, bodies, think tanks etc? Please list each appointment and who agreed it. Mr. Webb is head of a directorate which by the Council’s own assessment is not meeting a large number of performance indicators. My feeling is that if he is highly paid to do a job he should concentrate on that and not on other career-boosting activities.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Kind regards
Sheila
