Decisions:
The Portfolio Holder for Finance and Resources introduced a report setting out the updated Procurement Strategy. The Council’s current Strategy was adopted in September 2010. Since this time the Council’s Officer Procurement Group had kept the Strategy under review to ensure it continued to comply with relevant legislation and best practice in procurement as well as supporting the Council in meeting its priorities.
Minor amendments had been made to more accurately reflect the role of the Council’s Officer Procurement Group. The design and layout of the Strategy had also been updated to align with other policy and strategy documents and to improve the readability of the document.
