We're required under the Local Government Act 2000 to make our constitution available for inspection at our offices. We also need to publish it on our website.
The constitution includes details about:
- the way we operate
- how we make decisions
- the procedures that we follow to make sure that any decisions we make are efficient, transparent and accountable to people who live in the borough.
