All formal meetings are publicised in advance and reports and background papers are open to public inspection where the issues are to be discussed in public. Reasons must be given if the Authority wishes to discuss matters in private.
In addition to meetings of the full Police Authority, there are a number of committees which meet regularly throughout the year. The committees can make decisions on behalf of the Authority, or make recommendations to the full Police Authority. The
terms of reference of each committee is available on this site.
