The Assistant Director of Governance reported that the Constitution Working Group had completed its review of the Constitution and this had since been adopted by Council in 2016. Therefore, point 1 of its Terms of Reference that read, “To complete a review of the Council’s Constitution by 31 March 2016 and to recommend new arrangements accordingly;” should now be deleted.
