answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/04/2014 answer text <p>The Orders establishing each Combined Authority specify the membership of the body; and require the election of a chairman and vice-chairman at the first meeting of the Combined Authority and thereafter at its annual meeting. Each member has one vote and there is no casting vote. The Orders also make provision that no remuneration is to be payable to members except for allowances for travel and subsistence in accordance with a scheme drawn up by the Combined Authority. All of the councils concerned consented to these provisions, which were based on proposals originally made by the councils.</p><p><br>The statutory provisions for the conduct of council meetings apply equally to the conduct of meetings of a Combined Authority, including provisions about the taking and publication of inutes. The Code of Recommended Practice for Local Authorities on Data Transparency applies to combined authorities and the Openness of Local Government Bodies Regulations 2014, if approved by Parliament, will also apply.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Baroness Stowell of Beeston question first answered 10/04/2014 12:00:00 answering member 4205 label Biography information for Baroness Stowell of Beeston

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/04/2014 answer text <p>This Government has helped these councils set up a combined authority, something that all the local leaders asked for. I understand that they are now working together to make it work.</p><p>As I explained during the recent debates in Grand Committee on the draft Orders providing for the establishment of the combined authorities, if in the future councils decide that changes to a combined authority are in the area's best interest – perhaps another council joining, or one leaving – and the statutory conditions have been met, the Government would seek Parliamentary approval to a new draft Order providing for the changes to take place.</p><p>The Order allows for any local authority to change their representative member on the Combined Authority.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Baroness Stowell of Beeston question first answered 11/04/2014 12:00:00 answering member 4205 label Biography information for Baroness Stowell of Beeston
