The report had not been circulated five clear days in advance of the meeting. The chair agreed to accept the report as urgent as cabinet had requested a progress report on Brexit impact and preparedness. Given the current date of the UK withdrawal from the EU is planned for 29 March 2019, the next available cabinet would have been too late to consider a progress report ahead of Brexit itself.
RESOLVED:
1. That progress on work following adoption of the recommendations from the Southwark Brexit Panel in January 2019 be noted.
2. That a progress report be brought to the next cabinet meeting.
