Administration / Council Business
Located within the Chief Executive's Department, the primary role of the Administration Department is to ensure the smooth running of the Council's business with its associated administrative functions.
This involves servicing meetings of the Council and its Committees, ie preparing agendas, minuting meetings and following up decisions of Council. We also provide administrative and research support to elected members, particularly the Chairman, and arrange Council's civic and ceremonial events.
In addition the Department has responsibility for Registration of Births, Deaths, Marriages and Civil Partnerships within the District. Various internal administrative functions, such as ordering stationery and facility management, are also the responsibility of the Administration Department.
