These figures show the attendance of a Councillor only at
meetings of the full council, Cabinet and/or committees on which he
or she serves. They do not include the many other types of meeting
a Councillor may attend - such as those representing the Council on
outside bodies, meetings with officers and constituents, or ward
surgeries. Attendance at meetings may also be affected by a number
of factors - including other commitments relating to Council
business, holidays (particularly where meetings are called at
relatively short notice) and unforeseen circumstances such as
illness.
