Can anyone tell me where the Council meeting will be taking place and at what time?

Is a non-council member permitted at attend if they are an interested party?

Thanks for your help. :)

Its in Birmingham, 1.30pm. I believe that only council members, proxy holeders and other "invitees" may attend.

Sean,
Will you be attending? Are you empowered to dispense invites?

OK, so what happened?

Good (go with the proposal) or bad (reject) news?

All motions on the agendas of the two meetings (ECF and BCF) were carried overwhelmingly on a show of hands, without the need for a card vote.
