Questions from the public at Full Council meetings

Any resident of East Suffolk who is listed on the electoral register may ask questions to the Chair of the Council, the Leader of the Council, members of the Cabinet, or the Chair or Vice-Chair of any committee or sub-committee of the Council, at any ordinary meeting of the Full Council (this excludes the Council’s annual meeting or any extraordinary meetings of the Full Council).

 

Questions must be submitted in writing or by email to the Proper Officer no later than midday ten working days before the date of the meeting.  Each question must give the name and address of the questioner and must name the member of the Council to whom it is to be put.  The scope of questions that can be considered can be found in the Council Procedure Rules set out in Part 3 of the East Suffolk Council Constitution.
