Notice of the following motion has been given by Councillor Brice:
That just as MPs do in Westminster, Councillors can use their mobile phones in the Council chamber during meetings for the purposes of accessing Council papers online, researching items that are raised or if they are using a calculator on their device. Obviously the use of technology in the chamber for personal use during Council/Committee meetings should still not be allowed. |
