Ms Heath said if all Conservative Councillors were unable to attend the meeting arranged for 17 September, could the representatives attend the Conservative Group meeting on 20 September where budget proposals would be discussed in private, to address issues before decisions were made. She also asked if Cllr Proctor and Cllr Borrett would prioritise some time to spend with disabled people and their families before future budget decisions, so they could experience the difficulties faced. In reply, the Chairman said that as many Conservative Councillors as possible would attend the meeting on 17 September. He added, with regard to the meeting on 20 September, that this was a private Group meeting so it would not be possible for anyone else to attend, although he committed, and he felt sure Cllr Borrett would as well, to try to meet the people concerned to understand their issues and what is needed to be addressed.
