Craig Simmons    Green: St Mary’s   (quoted in Ox Times 07/05/20)
‘Many of the suggestions made in the manifesto were similar to Green Party policy. Last year the Greens ran an open session where we invited people to give their views on the council budget - not just our personal budget - but the entire capital programme. That is how we came up with the fact that people did not support the Seacourt Park-and-Ride extension as a policy, for example’ .’ in holding meetings remotely, the council had the opportunity to hold briefings and invite members of the public to ask questions more easily. - the Greens had suggested open sessions for members of the public during digital council meetings, but this had so far been rejected.
Note: added at the end of the article ‘Oxford City Council was due to start holding remote meetings via video link later this month’ (i.e. during May 2020)
