Douglas councillors can attend committees remotely

Douglas councillors will now be allowed to attend committees remotely.

Members can join meetings if there are ‘extenuating circumstances’ which would leave them unable to join in person.

The local authority will also be looking again at live streaming some meetings which it stopped previously due to low viewing numbers.

Douglas Councillor Andrew Bentley says it won’t be extended to full council meetings due to ‘antiquated’ technology in the council chamber.
