114H: Meetings not invalid because notice not given

You could also call this:

"Meetings are still valid even if you weren't told about them"

Illustration for Local Government Act 1974

If a meeting happens and you were not told about it, the meeting is still valid. You might wonder why you did not get notice of the meeting, but that does not make the meeting invalid. The rule that says this is called section 114H of the Local Government Act 1974, but it was repealed on 1 July 2003 by section 266 of the Local Government Act 2002, which you can find on the legislation website.
