We are committed to extending the participation of local people in our decision making and increasing the influence local people have over issues in their communities.
Every councillor sits on a number of committees and helps make or review decisions on behalf of the council.
Regulatory committees make decisions that the executive councillors are not allowed to make, while decisions that they have made are reviewed by scrutiny committees.
Find out more about these committees and how you can have your say at meetings. A guide to city council decisions is available.
Area committees bring the council's decision-making into local communities and give local people the opportunity of voicing their views and ideas about how to improve community life.
Filming, recording and photography
Filming, recording and photography at council meetings is allowed subject to certain restrictions and prior agreement from the chair of the meeting.
Please refer to:
Requests to film, record or photograph, whether from a media organisation or a member of the public, must be made to the Democratic Services Manager at least three working days before the meeting.
