200612 CNPA Bd Matters Arsiting BCP Board Presiding Sen Officer Support Arrangements

This document contains amendments to the Cairngorms National Park Authority's standing orders, agreed in March 2020, regarding who presides over board meetings and provides support. A specific order of precedence is established for board members (starting with the Convener, Xander McDade, and continuing down a list of six members), to cover absences. Similarly, a list of senior officers is created, outlining who supports the board in order of precedence. These provisions are temporary, lasting only for the period of the Business Continuity Plan (BCP) amendments and will be reviewed within two years. The changes clarify existing procedures and ensure continuity during absences or emergencies.
