Local government: Meetings


Once the Local Authorities and Police and Crime Panels (Coronavirus) (Flexibility of Local Authority and Police and Crime Panel Meetings) (England and Wales) Regulations 2020, SI 2020/392, which permitted local authority meetings to be held remotely (in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic), ceased to apply, such meetings had to take place at a single, specified geographical location; attending a meeting at such a location meant physically going to it; and being ‘present’ at such a meeting involved physical presence at that location. Accordingly, the Administrative Court, in dismissing a judicial review claim, ruled that Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government had been correct, in November 2016 and July 2019, to say that primary legislation would be required to allow local authority ‘meetings’ under the Local Government Act 1972 to take place remotely.

Councillor Richard Foster, leader of Craven District Council, said: “It is disappointing that councils have been instructed that face to face meetings must resume, and that we are unable to continue holding remote meetings.

Some councils are drawing up plans to sidestep legal requirements for them to hold face to face meetings from now on by first holding informal remote meetings of councillors, then allowing a smaller group of elected members to ratify those decisions in person.
In order to limit face to face member contact while the coronavirus pandemic continues, councils are taking steps to flex the rules which dictate they must now return to meeting face to face, following a high court judgement on the matter last month.
