Minutes:
Louise De Cordova introduced the report and highlighted the following points:
· The V&E Sub-Committee is asked to consider a nomination from the Conservative Group for former Councillor Peter Abraham to be made an Honorary Alderman.
· This recommendation will then go to Full Council for approval.
· There are certain criteria for the nomination as set out by Full Council in 2017. It was confirmed that these had been met in this case.
Discussion Notes:
· It was noted that an alderman was once appointed who did not qualify under the criteria, but PA clearly meets or exceeds them.
· The committee congratulated PA on his outstanding 55-year record of public service, including holding the position of Lord Mayor 3 times.
· There are several south Bristol Councillors on the committee who noted that PA was originally elected in 1966 for Stockwood Ward and commended his work in that area.
· PA has served in every conceivable position and on every committee at the council.
· PA said that he would serve as a Councillor until England won the world cup again and the committee regrets he was not able to see this come to fruition.
· The committee is looking forward to hearing more about PA’s story at the full council meeting.
RESOLVED the Value and Ethics Sub-Committee Unanimously approves that Peter Abraham should be recommended to Full Council as an Honorary Alderman.
