The legal advisors dealing with the recovery of the deposit had invited those authorities that wished to do so to participate in a joint sale of their claims. A selected group of Members had therefore been consulted on the proposal in order to meet the response deadline. RECOMMENDED: That the Cabinet endorse the decision taken by the Leader and Cabinet Member for Finance, Innovation and Property to participate in the sale of the Council's Landsbanki claim as set out in the report. *Referred to Cabinet |
