Administrative History | In March 2015 Aberdeenshire Council established a Future Governance Working Group to review the Council’s governance structure in light of the integration of health and social care and funding changes. This Group reported to Council in June 2016 with proposals including changes to the remits of the Council's committees and the transfer to the Full Council of the primacy role in respect of financial and other matters from the Policy & Resources Committee. A new Scheme of Governance for the Council was agreed in November 2016, and the new committees came into operation on the 27th January 2017. |
