Cllr Swinburn - he continues to enjoy full confidence of his cabinet colleagues
A CALL for the resignation of a senior member of North East Lincolnshire Council's cabinet has fallen on deaf ears.
The authority's main opposition Labour Group demanded the resignation of Cllr Stewart Swinburn in the wake of never-ending delays in the renovation of Grimsby's historic Corporation Road Bridge.
But at this evening's AGM of the council, it was confirmed that Cllr Swinburn would remain as portfolio for infrastructure and transport.
His brief will also include responsibility for housing.
The full cabinet line-up for the following year is as follows:
* Cllr P Jackson – Leader and Portfolio Holder for Economy, Regeneration, Devolution and Skills
* Cllr S Shreeve – Deputy Leader and Portfolio Holder for Health, Wellbeing and Adult Social Care
* Cllr M Cracknell – Portfolio Holder for Children and Education
* Cllr S Harness – Portfolio Holder for Finance, Resources and Assets
* Cllr H Hudson – Portfolio Holder for Environment and Net Zero
* Cllr S Swinburn – Portfolio Holder for Housing, Infrastructure and Transport
* Cllr R Shepherd – Portfolio Holder for Safer and Stronger Communities
* Cllr H Dawkins – Portfolio Holder for Culture, Heritage and the Visitor Economy
Expressing full confidence in his team, Cllr Jackson insisted: "We will continue to press on with our priorities this year.
"We will deliver on our promises to help create a stronger economy and a safer community."
