Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

The briefing note states that the mayor will have a vote on all matters before the council, except in matters of oversight. In that context, head 12(2) states: "The mayor shall exercise a vote in relation to all matters that come before the elected council, except where the vote is in relation to the council's oversight role in respect of the mayor." That is not in the actual briefing note. I apologise. It is in the general scheme.
