Readers should be aware that the Recommendations and Notices of Motion as set out in the Council Business Paper are simply proposals to the Council for its consideration.

The Council may adopt these proposals, amend the proposals, determine a completely different course of action, or it may decline to pursue any course of action.

The decision of the Council becomes a resolution of the Council and is recorded in the Council Minutes. Readers are referred to this separate document.

The Council Business Paper and the Council Minutes are linked by the common Item Numbers and Titles.

Minutes from the meeting are confirmed at the following meeting until then they are presented as draft unconfirmed minutes.
