Torbay Council Leader, Steve Darling said: “I am pleased to be elected as the Leader of Torbay Council and I am committed to working closely with my Cabinet to further many of the aspirations for Torbay that we share, such as more jobs, more affordable housing, tackling climate change, involving our communities and turning the tide on poverty in Torbay.

“There is no doubt that there will be difficult decisions to be made, but by working together I hope that we can tackle some of these issues head on and ensure Torbay has a bright future.”

The Overview and Scrutiny Co-ordinator and Scrutiny Lead Members were also appointed at the Adjourned Annual Council meeting, as were appointments to committees and other bodies.
