Tory Leader Rutland County Council, Mr Begy, the role of Monitoring Officer did not require any specific qualifications to fulfil the duties of the post

Tory Leader Rutland County Council, Mr Begy, the role of Monitoring Officer did not require any specific qualifications to fulfil  the duties of the post could this explain many messes at Rutland County Council?



Question from Ms H Pender, Oakham 

“What personal and professional qualifications does the proposed 
candidate have to fit her for the role of Monitoring Officer?” 

The Chairman invited the Leader to respond. Mr Begy explained that the 
role of Monitoring Officer did not require any specific qualifications to fulfil 
the duties of the post. 

In her supplementary question, Ms Pender referred to specific job 
requirements, for example, five years’ experience at a senior officer level 
and a minimum of two years’ experience dealing with elected members. 
In his response, Mr Begy explained that the Director of Resources, Mrs 
Mogg, was a senior officer of the council who had experience of dealing 
with members. The recommendation to approve Mrs Mogg as the 
Council’s Monitoring Officer was as a result of Council’s resolution at the 
August meeting when the Re-structure of the Strategic Management 
Team was discussed.
