If you are new to minute writing, it may be advisable to send the minutes to one or two trusted people to check and comment on before you circulate them more widely.

One of these people should be the chair, unless they themselves have asked you to send them to someone else first. Once the minutes have been approved, they can be circulated more widely to the attendees and, if necessary, published on a website. Be aware that attendees may wish to correct any errors, and corrections will need to be incorporated in the next set of minutes.
