Legal Basis for Processing
The Coronavirus Act 2020 provides for ‘persons to attend, speak at, vote in, or otherwise participate in, local authority meetings without all of the persons, or without any of the persons, being together in the same place’.
The Local Authorities and Police and Crime Panels (Coronavirus) (Flexibility of Local Authority and Police and Crime Panel Meetings) (England and Wales) Regulations 2020 provides us with greater flexibility in the conduct of our meetings, including allowing Councillors to attend remotely and for the public and press to access those meetings.
For further information on the council’s legal basis for processing your personal data please see the Democratic Services Privacy Notice.
