Clark puts wrong dates on agendas when put on notice boards

Question

The clerk has put up the agendas on the public notice board with the wrong dates on the meetings are this Tuesday 18 October on the notice boards for the public is  Thursday 18 October we also have a leisure meeting on the Tuesday 18 October on the notice boards it is dated for August 2022 do we now have to cancel those meeting or can we just change the dates the agenda papers for the councillors are dated correctly

Answer 1

Got to be honest, I've done this in the past!  Simple response is, if the meeting (actual meeting) is more than three clear days away, the agenda and notice can be amended and a corrected version put up.  If the actual meeting is now less than three clear days away, the meeting will have to be rescheduled.

Comments

The agenda went up on Thursday for a meeting on Tuesday the clerk amended them today Saturday the clear day are Friday Saturday and Monday

A clear day is defined as excluding the day the notice is posted and the day of the meeting.  I agree that a notice posted on Thursday is in time for a meeting on Tuesday but an amended notice today (Saturday) can't include the previous Friday or today, Saturday, as notice.
OK from a practical point of view, if nobody challenges it, nobody challenges it, but I'd personally not risk it.
