Access to Meetings/Information

Most of the meetings of Council, together with the Cabinet, Cabinet Committee and other Committee meetings, are open to the public, as will be the reports to those meetings. The exception under the "Access to Information" provisions will be those parts of the meetings and reports where there will be the likely disclosure of "exempt information", such as staffing matters, financial and business affairs of people or companies with whom the Council has dealings and matters relating to legal proceedings.

For details of the above meetings, please check the Public Notice of each week's meetings on display at Neath and Port Talbot Civic Centres, the Pontardawe 'One Stop Shop', or access our Schedule of Meetings.

Agendas and Public Reports are open to inspection at the Chief Executive's Directorate, Port Talbot Civic Centre during normal office hours.

The Council's Constitution sets out the public rights to attend meetings and to inspect and copy documents (taken from the Local Government Act 1972).

Alternatively, you may contact the Committee/Member Services Manager for any advice about meetings and the Access to Information provisions.
