Committee meeting minutes are posted to the website in draft form. They are approved, with or without amendment, at the next committee meeting. To see whether minutes have been amended there is a need to refer to the minutes of the following meeting. Council meeting minutes are also posted in draft form and the minutes of the following meeting need to be referred to, to see if any amendments have been made. Minutes of committee meetings represent recommendations to the full Council. The actions proposed within the minutes are either adopted at the Council meeting unchanged, or with amendment, referred back to the committee or rejected.
