Decision details

It was moved by Councillor D. Spear and seconded by Councillor Topham “that Councillor Worden to appointed Leader of the Council for the 2022/23 municipal year.”

RESOLVED that Councillor Worden to appointed Leader of the Council for the 2022/23 municipal year.

Councillor Worden thanked Council for re-appointing him as Leader of the Council for the next 12 months which was a privilege and an honour. He was looking forward to the next 12 months and confident that the Council would go ahead and do great things with a number of exciting projects in Barnstaple and Ilfracombe.  He made a plea to Councillors to attend meetings and training sessions that were arranged as there had been a number of important meetings held where there had been poor attendance.
