Declarations of Interest This note briefly summarises the position on interests which you must declare at the meeting. Please refer to the Members’ Code of Conduct in Section DD of the Constitution for a fuller description. The duty to declare … You must always declare any “personal interest” in a matter under consideration, ie where the matter affects (either positively or negatively): (i) any of the financial and other interests which you are required to notify for inclusion in the statutory Register of Members’ Interests; or (ii) your own well-being or financial position or that of any member of your family or any person with whom you have a close association more than it would affect other people in the County. Whose interests are included … “Member of your family” in (ii) above includes spouses and partners and other relatives’ spouses and partners, and extends to the employment and investment interests of relatives and friends and their involvement in other bodies of various descriptions. For a full list of what “relative” covers, please see the Code of Conduct. When and what to declare … The best time to make any declaration is under the agenda item “Declarations of Interest”. Under the Code you must declare not later than at the start of the item concerned or (if different) as soon as the interest “becomes apparent”. In making a declaration you must state the nature of the interest. Taking part if you have an interest … Having made a declaration you may still take part in the debate and vote on the matter unless your personal interest is also a “prejudicial” interest. “Prejudicial” interests … A prejudicial interest is one which a member of the public knowing the relevant facts would think so significant as to be likely to affect your judgment of the public interest. What to do if your interest is prejudicial … If you have a prejudicial interest in any matter under consideration, you may remain in the room but only for the purpose of making representations, answering questions or giving evidence relating to the matter under consideration, provided that the public are also allowed to attend the meeting for the same purpose, whether under a statutory right or otherwise. Exceptions … There are a few circumstances where you may regard yourself as not having a prejudicial interest or may participate even though you may have one. These, together with other rules about participation in the case of a prejudicial interest, are set out in paragraphs 10 – 12 of the Code. Seeking Advice … It is your responsibility to decide whether any of these provisions apply to you in particular circumstances, but you may wish to seek the advice of the Monitoring Officer before the meeting. If you have any special requirements (such as a large print version of these papers or special access facilities) please contact the officer named on the front page, but please give as much notice as possible before the meeting. This page is intentionally left blank Agenda Item 3 ADMISSION FORUM MINUTES of the meeting held on Wednesday, 16 June 2010 commencing at 3.30 pm and finishing at 4.50 pm Present : Members: Councillor Lawrie Stratford – in the Chair Olivia Denson (Community Representative) Kate Edwards (Catholic Archdiocese of Birmingham Representative) Nick Hindmarsh (Foundation School Representative) Christine Jones (Anglican Diocese of Oxford Representative) Ruth Robinson (Academy Representative) Peter Simmonds (Secondary Community School Representative – with experience and knowledge of special needs) Laurie Thompson (Parent Admission Advisor Representative) (in place of Rachel Caseby) Councillor Michael Waine Meg Wickett (RAF Representative) Officers: Whole of meeting K. Coldwell (Corporate Core); P. Greene (Children, Young People and Families). The Committee considered the matters, reports and recommendations contained or referred to in the agenda for the meeting, together with secondary allocation figures for September 2010 tabled at the meeting, and decided as set out below. Except insofar as otherwise specified, the reasons for the decisions are contained in the agenda, reports and schedule, copies of which are attached to the signed Minutes. 28/10 ELECTION TO CHAIRMAN FOR A YEAR (Agenda No. 1) The Forum was reminded that at its last meeting Councillor Lawrie Stratford had agreed to take on the role of Chairman until another Forum member was willing to take on this role. The Forum was therefore asked again whether it wished to elect a Chairman, to remain in post for a year from the date of their election, as agreed in the Forum’s Constitution. Members were reminded that the Chairman does not have to be a core member. Councillor Lawrie Stratford was elected to Chairman until this time next year. It was AGREED to leave the post of Deputy Chairman vacant. Page 1 AF3 29/10 APOLOGIES FOR ABSENCE (Agenda No. 2) Apologies were received from Frank Newhofer, Maureen Agnew (Governor Representative substitute) Aggie Kalungu Banda and Jolie Kirby. Laurie Thompson attended in place of Rachel Caseby. Pat Greene attended in place of Neil Darlington. 30/10 DECLARATIONS OF INTEREST - SEE GUIDANCE NOTE ON BACK PAGE (Agenda No. 3) Councillor Waine declared a personal interest at Agenda Item 5 on the grounds that he is a local authority representative, an associate governor and his grandson is in a county school (community school). 31/10 ADMISSION FORUM MINUTES (Agenda No. 4) The minutes of the meeting held on 23 February 2010 were AGREED . Matters Arising Minute 24/09 – Admission Outcomes in relation to preferences at primary and secondary level – the Forum noted the situation in relation to Banbury as listed on the paper circulated at the meeting. In summary, all Oxfordshire pupils who had requested a place in a secondary school for September 2010 had been allocated a school place. In the Banbury area there were originally 16 pupils who had only requested one secondary school or non local schools. None of these pupils had requested a place at Banbury School and therefore they had been offered a school in Bicester. Subsequently in the late allocation (4 May 2010) 8 pupils had requested an alternative school (Banbury) and had been offered places.
