The Overview and Scrutiny Committee of 25th July 2013 was recorded for the first time. The Chairman’s opening remarks, that “expectations were disappointed” as no public speakers came forward on this occasion, will be noted with no surprise. Outside the holiday season, questions from the public will doubtless resume as usual.
