Chapter 7: Public Participation at Meetings
Public Participation at Meetings
All formal Council, Executive (Cabinet), Overview and Scrutiny, and Regulatory and Non-Executive Committee meetings are generally open to the public, ensuring transparency and civic engagement so that local residents can observe and understand how decisions are made.
Public participation at meetings is managed by the Chair using the procedures applicable to that meeting.
The Council’s Committee Procedure Rules in Part E set out the general principles of public engagement at meetings. These will operate at all meetings unless there are explicit rules which apply to that specific meeting. For example. The Council’s planning and licensing committees have their own operating procedures whilst meetings of Council operate using the Council Procedure Rules .
