Meetings since 27 October 2025 where the council recorded who attended and they were expected as a member. Sending a substitute counts as an absence; attending as someone else's substitute isn't counted.

Attended 24 of 29 meetings (83%).

Among the council's 65 councillors who were expected at five or more meetings over the same 12 months, the middle attendance figure was 86%. Attendance doesn't show everything a councillor does: some sit on more committees than others, and absence can be for illness, caring or council business elsewhere.

Agenda items that name them. An item is marked as a question or motion only when the papers say they asked or moved it. Found by searching the papers for their name, so a few may be about someone with a similar name.
