How to raise issues for debate at Council meetings

Taplow Parish Council prides itself on its open and inclusive meetings, conducted in a relaxed environment where members of the public are encouraged to raise issues of importance or concern.  Over the years, many positive actions of the Council have been taken in direct response to matters raised by our Parishioners.  Our meetings provide a useful opportunity for issues to be presented and discussed in public, and it is common for decisions to be deferred to give Councillors time to consider their position or to clarify points of ambiguity.

However, it is a matter of good governance that the Parish Council does not take decisions without proper consideration of the facts.  It is standard practice that, for substantial issues to be considered by Councillors, background papers are provided by the person seeking to have a motion on the agenda.

If you would like to request any matter be debated at a council meeting in the future please contact the Parish Clerk.
