As cllrs are still legally cllrs until four days after an election, can a clerk refuse to include agenda items submitted by a cllr prior to the end of the four days for future agendas and even if the cllr fails to be re-elected, as long as the requests have been submitted in accordance with Standing orders. If the clerk can't refuse the request, what action can be taken against them.
