369.Section 22(10) of the 2000 Act enables the Welsh Ministers to make regulations requiring the provision of information to the public or members of a principal council about decisions of the executive of that council.
370.Section 65 amends section 22(10) so that regulations may also require that overview and scrutiny committees and their sub-committees are given information about such decisions. Greater knowledge of the decision the executive intends to make will enable these committees to better plan their work.
