Discussions are underway to change the electronic voting system used at Herefordshire Council’s meetings, it is understood.

Councillors have held talks with council officers over the technology that is currently used when recording votes during a public meeting.

They have made enquiries about how to make the process of voting in online meetings more open and transparent as the current system does not show how councillors vote.
