From October 2019, Council Ordinary meetings, Special Meetings and Standing Committee Meetings held in the Council Chambers are live streamed and recorded while the meeting is in progress. The live stream ceases during confidential items of business (closed sessions) and when the meeting ends. Meetings which are held off-site are not streamed or recorded.

Live streaming allows you to watch and listen to meetings in real time without the need to physically attend, giving you greater access to Council decision-making and debate. You can also view video of previously-recorded meetings.

Visit Council's meeting webcast site for live streaming on meeting days, archived webcasts and important information about this service.
