Speaking at Meetings
  

Speaking at Full Council meetings

If you live or work in the Wealden District you may ask a question of the Council in Public Question Time at the start of Full Council meetings.   Questions may be about any of the Council's services but not in respect of individual cases.    

The question must be submitted in writing ten clear working days before the Council meeting.   Thirty minutes are allowed at the start of meetings for public questions.   Questioners are invited to read their question at the meeting and may ask one supplementary question on a point of clarification relating to the reply. Questions are limited to one per person per meeting. 

More detailed information on Public Question Time and an application form (pdf) are now available online or alternatively, please contact our Member Services Manager on 01892 602433 or email memberserv@wealden.gov.uk
