Does that mean it will be handed on to the next Leader of the Council?

When (if, at all) during the Annual Meeting of the Council does the old Leader hand over the Leaders medal to the new leader?

Is it

a) Before or after the installation of the Mayor?
b) Before or after the installation and swearing in of the new councillors? or
c) Before or after the presentation of the cheque for the refreshments to the member for Baxenden?

It is an important constitutional issue in the current climate of cuts.
