Ms Bettina Zietman

Dear Bedford Borough Council,

Can you please let me know:

1) Does Bedford Borough Council education committee include any co-opted (non-councillor) members?

2) If yes to Q1, do co-opted members have full privileges of councillor members on the committee, i.e. do they have voting rights?

3) If yes to Q1, Please provide information on the co-opted members:
a) is there a process for their being co-opted?
b) are they co-opted to represent a specific group or organisation?
c) do they have specific titles associated with their position?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Yours faithfully,

Ms Bettina Zietman
