Today's Cabinet meeting heard that they had received an application from a member of the public to Audio record the meeting, which was in accordance with the 1973 act.
However Tony Buchanan, the leader of the council and chair of the cabinet apparently decided that it was not going to happen.
He apparently informed those Cllrs present that as the meeting would be minuted, that would be sufficient.
The meeting then commenced and lasted five minutes and was then concluded after dealing with the one item on the agenda.
