We hope this page will answer any questions you may have.

Q: "Why can't I see the Minutes of the last Parish Council meeting?"

A: Before formally publishing to the public the Minutes have to be approved as a true and accurate record by Full Council at the next meeting, as there may be an error or inaccuracy that needs to be amended. Only then will they appear on the Manston Parish Council website.

Q: "Why aren't the Minutes of Meetings on the village notice boards?"

A: It is not a requirement to put Parish Council Minutes on the village notice boards as they are published on the EPC website. The minutes often are 6 or 7 pages long and must be printed single-sided; this is not ecologically sound, going forward. The production of paper and toner use processes harmful to the environment and it is not MPC policy to condone this by printing unnecessarily.
