The Town Council Community Services Committee meets Monday, 3 October. For a meeting on Monday evening the Town Council are required by statute to publish the agenda on the previous Tuesday. This is where it's published, and at the time of posting it's not there. Nor is it the first time the Council have failed to publish the agenda on time. The time limits for publication are imposed by statute so that parishoners have sufficient time to scrutinise the business of the meeting and to research and prepare questions for the Council in order to hold the Council properly to account.

Bloody council and their lack of publishing documents.
What irks me though is that, from reading through a couple of other documents, how ****-about-face everything seems to be. All the documents are stupidly wordy, overly complicated and mainly pointless. They probably spend more time looking at the sheets saying what's happening than they do actually discussing the problems at hand. |

Are the time limits for publication on the Internet, or in printed form? |

QUOTE (NWNREADER @ Sep 28 2011, 07:57 PM) Yes, the document was made available some time this afternoon. The point is that it should have been available some time yesterday afternoon and, not for the first time, it wasn't. -------------------- Right an injustice - give Simon Kirby his allotment back!

The document is dated 27th. I can't see the reference for what you claim to be the requirement/local policy
