Herefordshire Council has apologised after one of their meetings had to be postponed today due to technical issues.

Since the coronavirus lockdown the council has been live streaming all its public meetings via Youtube.

Council leaders were due to consider proposals to set a new carbon reduction target, provide new housing support for vulnerable adults and resettle more refugees in the county.

However, the cabinet meeting had to be pushed back until next week.

A spokesperson said: “Our apologies but due to technical issues with the live stream and the need for this meeting to be public, today’s cabinet meeting has been postponed until Thurday 4 June 2020.

“We apologise for any inconvenience.”
