It would depend on how a meeting is chaired etc and nature of the focus of the sub group. Yet, we can consider a maximum number but for the future not start to impose rules for this 1st subgroup meeting.

>> I left the meeting early for another meeting that was important to me. Not just for not being in attendance for when it was decided to have the meeting on 2nd but also that I do not feel any meeting should be restricted. Any restriction makes it ‘undemocratic' and gets into issues that we already have with the SCC on having secret meetings. I fully do not agree with Kaktus view, yet willing to consider some compromise that I will think about coming up with of course open to anyone that can think of a compromise.

I think its really hard to get business done and not just have an (albeit interesting) discussion when there are lots of interested people involved. I have lots of skills linked to public engagement, consultation (including previous consultation results), funding bids and constitution development which i am happy to throw into the mix when needed.

>>> These sound like really important items for discussion at the full steering group meeting on the 9th. My understanding of the meeting on the 2nd is that it is to talk about planning the public meeting in September so that we can make the best use of everyone’s time and gather as much info as possible – so am thinking the agenda will be limited to things like, aims of the public meeting and the activities and discussions that are needed to allow everyone to have their say.
