About

The Agenda Briefing Forum (ABF) is a non-statutory meeting held by Council in order to maximise the opportunity for Elected Members to be informed prior to an OCM.

At the meeting Elected Members can seek additional information on an agenda item, ask questions, or seek clarification on Officer reports that are on the OCM Agenda.

Councillors cannot debate items at this forum.

Members of the public are invited to attend in person or view the live stream, however there is no opportunity for public participation at the ABF.

About the live stream

Live Streaming will commence at the times that the meetings are due to commence and finish when the presiding member closes or adjourns the meeting for any reason. At any time a motion may be passed by simple majority to stop streaming the meeting.

Meetings closed for consideration of matters under Section 5.23 of the Local Government Act or by resolution of Council will not be streamed.

The City's Recording and Streaming of Council Meetings Policy outlines the purpose and intent of recording and streaming Council Meetings.
