**Co-opted Independent Committee Member for the Dorset Council Harbours Advisory Committee**:
A new co-opted Independent Member is being sought to serve on the Dorset Council Harbours Advisory Committee, which is responsible for the running of Bridport, Lyme Regis and Weymouth harbours. The harbours are a significant part of the local communities, at the heart of the Dorset and South Devon World Heritage Site.

Dorset Council Harbours Advisory Committee consists of ten voting members, six councillors selected by Dorset Council and four co-opted members with voting rights on matters relating to the harbours. The four co-opted members have voting rights on all matters except for financial issues which in their case are confined within the budget delegated to the committee.

This is an exciting opportunity for an independent minded person with appropriate expertise to offer. Applicants must have an interest in public service and be committed to developing the harbours in Dorset, making them financially self-supporting whilst balancing the conflicting interests which arise.

**Role requirements**:
It is envisaged that the Harbours Advisory Committee will meet routinely four times per annum, usually in-person. There may be additional meetings, special meetings, workshops and training. Training in the Code of Conduct, Port Marine Safety Code and other harbour
- related skills are mandatory for all members of the committee.

**Person specification**:
Dorset Council is seeking a co-opted Independent Member who has expertise to offer the Harbours Advisory Committee at Board level in two or more of the following categories:

- Management of harbours, shipping and other forms of transport
- Local industrial, commercial, business, financial or legal (especially maritime law) matters
- Management of marine leisure activities
- Safety management
- Community issues
- Environmental matters
- Nautical experience including local area marine knowledge
- Any other skills and abilities considered from time to time by the Appointments Panel to be relevant to the discharge by the Board of its functions.

**Additional information**:
Appointments will be made on an open, transparent and competitive basis with the aim of complementing the skills and abilities of existing committee membership to obtain a committee that is independent and fit for purpose rather than representative of particular interests. The intention is to open up appointments to the Harbours Advisory Committee to secure an appropriate range of expertise whether gained through professional or life experience to ensure that it functions effectively. This will ensure that the committee is able to provide the harbours with effective leadership, motivation and strategic direction.

Appointments shall be for three years from the date of confirmation of appointment. An Independent Member may be appointed to a second but no further three year term without recourse to open competition.

Appointments to the Harbours Advisory Committee should be seen as a form of public service akin to that provided by becoming a councillor of a Local Authority or the like. Allowances paid to co-opted members of the Harbours Advisory Committee is in accordance with the Council’s members’ allowances scheme. Co-Opted members are currently offered an annual allowance of £1,000 plus travelling expenses when attending committee meetings or carrying out other activities on behalf of the committee on the same basis as councillors.

For further information please contact Ed Carter, Weymouth Harbour Master Telephone: 01305 838493
