The Chairman welcomed everyone to the meeting and explained that the SB Cares Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) was being reintegrated into the Council.  Live Borders and CGI were also being scrutinised by Executive and Audit and Scrutiny Committees and therefore not required to report to this Group.   The Chair would discuss the necessary amendments required to the Scheme of Administration to reflect these changes and advise accordingly.
