GUIDANCE NOTES 
* Declaration of Group Decisions and Members Interests - The Chair of the
meeting shall seek declarations from any individual or political group at the
beginning of a meeting whether any prior decision has been reached on how the
individual or members of the group will vote on any item(s) of business on the
Agenda, and if so on which item(s).  A prior decision shall be one that the
individual or the group deems to be mandatory on the individual or the group
members such that the individual or the group members will be subject to
sanctions should they not vote in accordance with the prior decision.  Any such
prior decisions will be recorded in the Minute of the meeting. 
** Written Questions - Any Member can put one written question about any relevant
and competent business within the specified remits not already on the agenda, to
the Chair provided it is received by the Proper Officer or Committee Services by
5pm three working days prior to the day of the meeting, please see Standing Order
36 for deadlines.  A copy of any written answer provided by the Chair will be
published on the Council’s committee management system by 12pm the day
before the meeting.  The Member who has put the question may, after the answer
has been published, may ask one supplementary question directly related to the
subject matter at the meeting, but no discussion will be allowed. 
No supplementary question can be put or answered more than 10 minutes after
the Council has started on the relevant item of business, except with the consent
of the Chair. If a Member does not have the opportunity to put a supplementary
