PARISH COUNCIL MEETINGS

As from 13 December 2021, the government introduced extra Band B measures in response to the emergence of the Omicron variant and the “credible risk” it presents to the NHS. These measures aim to slow the growth of this new variant and buy time for COVID-19 booster jabs to be rolled out.

Accordingly, if it's in the interest of public safety not to hold a public meeting, the Parish Council can discharge Council functions (under 101 of the Local Government Act 1972) to the Clerk (who is the Proper Officer and Responsible Financial Officer) in accordance with the Scheme of Delegation adopted and activated on 06 May 2021.

UPDATE: Following the Prime Minister's announcement that England would be removing all remaining COVID-19 legal restrictions from Thursday 24 February, the Scheme of Delegation was deactivated on 16 March 2022 (Agenda 38/22)
