Forward Plan

For the 4 month period 1 February 2012 to 31 May 2012

Published 17 January 2012

This plan contains all the key decisions which the Council expects to take over the next four months. The plan is rolled forward every month. It will next be published on 15 February 2012 and will then contain all the key decisions for the 4 month period 1 March 2012 – 30 June 2012. The definition of a key decision is given in the Council’s Constitution and set out below.

A decision notice for each key decision is published within five days of it having been made. This is open for public inspection on the Council’s website: www.tameside.gov.uk, libraries and customer service centres and at the Council Offices, Ashton-under-Lyne.

The law and the Council’s Constitution provides for urgent key decisions to be made provided certain criteria are met. A decision notice will be published for these in exactly the same way.

The Plan also contains a summary of the changes made to the Plan published on 17 December 2011 for the four month period 1 January 2012 – 30 April 2012.

Definition of a Key Decision:

A key decision, as defined in Article 17 of the Council’s Constitution is:

  • any Executive decision which requires a budget expenditure of £30,000 or more that is not in the budget presented to Council;
  • any Executive decision to vire £500,000 or more in the budget presented to Council;
  • any Executive decision where the outcome will have a significant impact on a significant number of people living or working in 2 or more Wards or a District Assembly area where this is less than two Wards.

A decision taker may only make a key decision in accordance with the requirements of the Executive Procedure Rules.
