You will find decisions taken
by Officers of the MCA who have the delegated authority to make
decisions on behalf of the MCA or Thematic Board.
The Officer Scheme of
Delegation is set out in Part 4F of the Constitution and section
101 of the Local Government Act 1972.
Under this provision the
Head of Paid Service, Section 151 Officer, Monitoring Officer and
Directors with delegated authority are each empowered individually
to take any action which is required in the interests of the
Authority where the effect of the decision is to:
i.
Grant a
permission or licence; or
ii.
Affect the
rights of an individual; or
iii.
Award a contract
or incur expenditure which, in either case, materially affects that
relevant local government body’s financial
position.
Where the decision to be
taken is a Key Decision, the decision will be published on the
MCA’s Forward Plan of Key Decisions 28 days in advance of the
decision being made.
