Audio Recordings
Each month, audio recordings of both the Planning Committee and Full Council meeting (except items discussed 'In Committee) are published on our website Committee and Council Meetings - Ards and North Down Borough Council
You should listen to both recordings, as items heard at the Planning Committee which relate to matters for which the Planning Committee does not have delegated powers are subject to ratification by the full Council.
All comments made by speakers appearing before the Committee, whether elected representatives, planning agents or members of the public, will be included in the recording.
