Delegated Authority to approve insurance renewal terms
Report of the Director (Resources, Environment and Cultural Services) on delegated authority for the renewal of the Council’s insurance policies for 2017/18.
(1) The Decision Taken
RESOLVED:
That the Executive Director (Resources, Environment and Cultural Services), in consultation with the Executive Member (Resources), be given delegated authority to approve the renewal of insurance policies, in view of the need for expeditious decisions to be made outside of timetabled meetings with the outcome to be reported to the September Cabinet meeting.
(2) Reasons for the Decision
The majority of the Council’s insurance policies were tendered in 2015 and new long term agreements entered into with the successful bidders. The leasehold property policy was tendered separately in 2014. Renewal of all policies with existing insurers would therefore be sought in accordance with these agreements, however as in previous years the timetable of meetings precluded the terms from being presented to Cabinet for consideration.
