Oakham Town Councils, Proposed protocol is ultra vires and an unlawful attempt to limit freedoms Filming of Meetings

This protocol is designed to frustrate the New legislation. 

It is therefore ultra vires and an unlawful attempt to limit freedoms recently given to members of the public.

Protocols may apply to council members, but it is a moot point whether they have any jurisdiction over members of the public.

This blatant is a attempt to frustrate the New Act.


The Town Council is planning to record and publish all meetings, I wonder why they feel the need
to request 24hrs notice from members of the public?

Most of the protocol is daft.
