NEW BUCKENHAM

The parish Council normally meets on the second Tuesday of the month, except for August.
​​
Other meetings (called Extraordinary Meetings) may be called to discuss particular issues and will be announced on the website, and the agenda placed on the village noticeboard.  

​​

An agenda is essentially a list of things to be discussed at the meeting. The Parish Clerk issues the agenda at least three working days before the meeting. The Council cannot make a decision at the meeting on anything not on the agenda.

​

In addition to the agenda certain background papers and written reports are sometimes provided, which will also be available on this website, subject to their not containing confidential information. 

​

The term "minutes" refers to a record taken by the Parish Clerk of decisions taken by the Council at each meeting. These will normally be place on the website in draft form within two weeks of the meeting concerned.

​

One of the first items on every Parish Council Agenda is to approve the minutes of the previous meeting as a correct record.
