Workshops enable staff to explore options with elected members before ideas are fully developed, and to receive feedback and guidance on policy development or project design. No resolutions or decisions are made by elected members at workshops and so the requirements of the Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act 1987 relating to local authority meetings do not apply.
