What's moved recently
Councils add policies, revise them, and revoke the ones that have stopped being useful. We’ve been watching this library since 5 July 2026, so anything older than that was already here when we started — not something we saw arrive.

None since the last check.
Last checked against the council website on 31 August 2026. A document leaving this list means it is no longer published — whether it was revoked, and when, is recorded in the minutes. (18 July 2026 is excluded: our own re-processing touched nearly every document that day, so it says nothing about the council.)
