6.7 Withdrawal of whole Minute after Cabinet has met

When a Minute is to be withdrawn after it has been endorsed by Cabinet for submission to Executive Council, the sponsoring Minister or Chief Executive must advise the Clerk of the Executive Council in writing stating the reason(s) for the withdrawal. If the withdrawal letter is signed by the Chief Executive, it should include confirmation that the withdrawal is being effected with the knowledge of the Minister.

When a Minute is withdrawn the Executive Council Secretariat will return it to the sponsoring agency concerned after the Executive Council meeting for which it was originally submitted.
