The Charter Trustees are asked to consider the order of precedence for Civic Events.

The Charter Trustees considered a report on the order of precedence for Charter Trustee civic events, which had been circulated to each Trustee and a copy of which appears as Appendix ‘B’ to these minutes in the Minute Book.

In considering the options the Charter Trustees asked Officers to advise of the decision taken by the Poole Charter Trustees at its meeting on 29 January 2020 on the order of precedence which was based on total service to the former Borough of Poole.

RESOLVED that section 6 of the Standing Orders of the Charter Trustees be amended as follows in respect of the Order of Precedence:

Order of Seniority will be based initially on total service in the Borough of Bournemouth and then number of registered voters falling within the historic boundaries of Bournemouth for each Trustee.

Voting: For – 26, Against – 0, Abstain – 2
