Live Streaming and Hybrid Arrangements

To encourage more people to engage in our public meetings the Council is live streaming our Cabinet meetings on our YouTube channel in addition to recording the meetings and publishing the recording on our website.  To watch the meeting live please visit https://www.youtube.com/user/torbaycouncil.

 

We are also using hybrid meeting arrangements to enable officers and Councillors who are not members of the Cabinet to either attend the meeting in person or to attend the meeting remotely via Zoom.  Anyone attending the meeting remotely must use their raise hand function when they wish to speak and to declare any interests at the appropriate time.  If anyone attending the meeting remotely loses connection the meeting will continue and they will have the option to follow the meeting via the YouTube live stream.
