Media relations protocol

We have a media relations protocol to enable efficient and responsible public communications. This ensures that the council’s public communications are approved by those officers and members with appropriate authority and that it is clear which individual officers and members are empowered to speak on behalf of the organisation.

Guidance 

The guidance and processes detailed in this protocol should be considered alongside other rules, guidance and training that apply to how officers and members operate.
