Dittisham Parish Council Standing Orders (Version dated 06/05/26)
Standing orders are the written rules of the Parish Council. We develop them to control our internal organisational and administrative procedures such as procurement and meetings. Our work is subject to many statutory requirements. Standing orders are in place to control the aspects of our work such as the number of meetings we must hold, the places that we can meet, how many councillors need to be present for there to be a quorum, notice periods and procedures for committees and sub-committees.
