Description

Committee Management Information System Committee meetings are a statutory function. The law provides for hard copies of agenda papers to be made available for public inspection and to make papers available electronically on websites. A committee management software system is required to fulfil that requirement in the most time-efficient way. More recently the broadcasting/livestreaming of council meetings and the use of other platforms such as Teams to facilitate attendance for the public have been required. The committee management system requires the facility to publish links to those meetings and retain copies of the recorded meetings. We are looking to host the system on our own servers.
