Issue - meetings

Councillor Jim Lynch noted in relation to agenda item 5 (Internal and External Audit Report Follow Up 2022-23) that he was appointed to the Oban BID Board by the Council.  Having taken note of the updated Standards Commission Guidance in relation to declarations (issued on 7 December 2021) with specific reference to 5.4(c) he did not consider that he had a relevant connection and as such would remain in the meeting and take part in consideration of this item.
