Outcome of parish meeting is published

The official record of the outcome of the meeting was approved by those present at the Vale Douzaine Room and has now been published as a formal document (see below).

It shows that the accounts for 2025 were approved by those present and the proposed expenditure for 2026 was similarly endorsed.

This means that the Constables can now apply to the Royal Court for permission to raise more than £700,000 via Owners' Rate to meet parochial needs and those of the Churchwardens and Parochial Cemetery Committee, whose accounts were similarly approved.

Their spending requirements for the year were also endorsed.

A number of points were raised in a brief any other business section, which is also covered in the Deliberations.
