Next Thursday, 26th November, is my first Full Council meeting since being elected, and the notes for the meeting – in the form of a bound 302-page book – dropped onto my doormat this afternoon. You can download it in PDF format here.

I’m reliably informed that I don’t need to read most of it – the first five pages are the most important: the agenda for the meeting and the text of two motions submitted (one on the funding of nursery educaton, the other on “Leisure and Cultural Services – provision to Armed forces Personnel and Veterans”).

The rest is mostly the minutes of other Council meetings that have happened in the last two months – mostly local area committees and scrutiny committees.
