Transparency Concerns: A Week of Cancelled and Unrecorded Colchester Council Meetings
In the past week, the Colchester council has scheduled three meetings. Here are the details:
- Cabinet Meeting on Friday, 24 May 2024.
- Council Meeting on Tuesday, 21 May 2024.
- Unknown Committee Meeting on Tuesday, 21 May 2024.
Unfortunately, the Cabinet Meeting transcript is entirely blank. No topics, discussions, or decisions were recorded, so there is no information available about what was discussed or decided.
Both the Council Meeting and the Unknown Committee Meeting scheduled for Tuesday, 21 May 2024, were cancelled.
Given the lack of substantive information from this week's meetings, there are no new policies, schemes, or decisions to report on. This week’s cancellations and lack of recorded discussions highlight a need for improved transparency and communication from the council. It will be important to monitor whether future meetings provide more detailed records and actionable outcomes.
