Consultation Standards

In April 2005 the Council approved a new set of Consultation Standards to guide its approach to consulting and involving the public and it's service users. These build on and update the Council's previous principles of consultation that were adopted in 2000.  

These Standards aim to provide you with a clear statement of the Council's commitment to consultation and public involvement and have recently been subject to public consultation.  All of the comments received as part of this consultation were considered by the Council's cabinet on the 5th April 2005 and you can read the report here along with the overview of comments.
