  2. Ward consultation Approach & Focus • Ward consultations will be held as a parallel process to the eight theme weeks • These will take the form of regional summits and will be convened by the Speakers Office • All regional summits will be held on Saturdays from 09:00 – 15:00 • These summits will not take the form of public meetings but will included invited stakeholders from each region • Councillors will then later take the process forward in their own public meetings at ward level • At each summit, a presentation focused on the GDS will be done • Following this, participants will break into commissions to discuss specific issues • Each commission will be chaired by a councillor who will be assisted by a resource person from the relevant theme • Scribes would note the input given and prepare a report for each regional summit 2
