Members of the public are welcome to attend a committee meeting and there will be fifteen minutes at the start of each meeting designated for public participation.

Members of the public are welcome to remain for the rest of the meeting unless their presence is deemed prejudicial to the public interest by reason of the confidential nature of the business to be transacted or for other special reasons. In these cases the Committee shall make a Resolution which will exclude the public from part or all of a meeting.
