The Board had before it the Draft Minute of the Board Meeting of 21 January 2020.

With reference to Article 3 of the minute, the Board was advised that Luan Grugeon was a Trustee of Aberdeen in Recovery.

With reference to Article 9 of the minute, the Board was advised that Councillor Duncan’s withdrawal from the meeting should precede the Article rather than follow.

With reference to Article 11 of the minute, the Board was advised that the amended wording would be applied to the revised Risk Register to be resubmitted.

‘The Council has contracted the provision of certain services to BAC.  So long as BAC exists, the Council expects BAC to act as provider of last resort.

Should BAC cease to trade (the Council as sole shareholder could take steps to prevent that), the Council would ultimately be responsible for providing those statutory services.

Therefore, ultimately, the Council is provider of last resort as it has the statutory duties.  However so long as BAC exists, it is expected to perform the role of provider of last resort.’

The Board resolved :-

(i)            to note the amendments above, and

(ii)          to otherwise approve the minute as a correct record.
