Forward plan

23 February 2021  (01/02/2021 to 31/05/2021, Executive)

Plan description

Special Arrangements to be put in place during Coronavirus crisis

The Local Authorities and Police and Crime Panels (Coronavirus) (Flexibility of Local Authority and Police and Crime Panel Meetings) (England and Wales) Regulations 2020 [“the Regulations”] allow local authorities to hold meetings remotely, including by (but not limited to) telephone conferencing, video conferencing, live webcast, and live interactive streaming.   

 

The Regulations further modify existing legislative provisions to remove the requirement for local authorities to hold annual meetings, and to enable requirements for public and press access to local authority meetings and associated documents to be complied with through remote means and website access. 

 

The Regulations apply to meetings of the Council, the Executive, Guildford Joint Committee, and all committees or sub-committees of these bodies, including Executive Advisory Boards.
