Council
The full council is made up of all 43 North Lincolnshire councillors. They meet as a full council about four or five times a year (or as required). In line with the Constitution, the full council:
- Sets the council’s overall policies and budgets. This includes setting council tax levels each year.
- Approves the Code of Conduct for councillors and officers.
- Adopts and agrees changes to the Constitution.
- Takes decisions which the leader and cabinet, committees and panels do not have powers to make.
- Agrees to a series of strategies and plans.
- Encourages community engagement.
The council receives reports on other issues and the minutes of the council’s committees and panels.
Council meetings are normally held at Church Square House, 30 – 40 High Street Scunthorpe. They are open to the public.
