LAMBETH COOPERATIVE COUNCIL - MINUTES AND PAPERS OF LAMBETH FIRST MEETING OF 10 JUNE 2010

Mark Sweeting and I attended our first meeting of the Board on 10 June, when the principal item presented was the White Paper on the Cooperative Council.

Readers can find the Agenda and Minutes of the meeting, as well as the text of the White Paper, at -

While the White Paper gives only an outline of the proposals that have been put forward, it suggests the possibility of delivering service more efficiently and with more resident involvement and responsibility, and I believe that it is most important that Community Advocates should read it carefully and take part in the consultation process that has now begun. 

It is, above all, a consultation document, and informed comment will be essential to the evolvement of the idea.
