About

The West Suffolk Council is the main decision-making body, comprising 64 elected district councillors representing 43 wards. It is responsible for making certain decisions that the law reserves exclusively for the full council, while other matters are delegated to the Cabinet or committees. Meetings are generally open to the public, and councillors can submit 'motions on notice' for consideration, which must be received ten working days before a meeting.
