Agenda item

Committee received the report in relation to the current position regarding the Welsh Government’s initiative around the Webcasting of Council Meetings.  Following this Authority’s decision not to participate in the scheme, Welsh Government investigated the possibility of entering into a single contact arrangement on behalf of the remaining 21 Welsh Local Authorities, however following discussions the decision was taken not to progress this further.

Members were advised that, as part of the Welsh Government’s White Paper, which was presently out for consultation, it was proposed to introduce a requirement to broadcast Council meetings at some future date.

RESOLVED:        That the report be noted.
