Bridgend County Borough Council

The Forward Work Programme contains matters which the Cabinet, Overview and Scrutiny Committees and full Council are likely to consider.

The Forward Work Programme covers a period of four months except when ordinary elections of councillors occur, in which case it covers the period up to the date of the elections. The Forward Work Programme is updated quarterly.

The Forward Work Programme is published at least 14 days before the start of the period covered and a notice is published in at least one local newspaper stating that a forward work programme will be published and giving the publication dates for that year.

The Forward Work Programme contains information on:

• The timetable for considering the Budget and any plans, policies or strategies forming part of the Policy Framework and requiring Council approval, and which body is to consider them;
• The timetable for considering any plans, policies or strategies which are the responsibility of the Cabinet ;
• Any individual matters on which the Cabinet intends to consult in advance of taking a decision, and the timetable for consultation and decision;
• The work programme of the Overview and Scrutiny Committees, to the extent that it is known.

Overview and Scrutiny Committees are responsible for setting their own work programmes. To ensure that the work programmes of each of the Overview and Scrutiny Committees are co-ordinated with one another and with the Cabinet’s Forward Work Programme an Overview and Scrutiny Steering Group will meet to agree an Overview and Scrutiny Forward Work Programme.
