How to track down information in Stockport Council papers

by Lib Dem team on 26 March, 2011

A little tip I’ve come across – there’s quite a good search facility for finding information that’s appeared in published Stockport Council commitee papers (and nearly all of them are publically available).

You can use the search facility here.

There’s a bug in there at the moment – some of the files it returns are called document.ashx which your computer may not be able to open (mine certainly can’t).

All you need to do in order to view them is simply download the file and rename it to document.doc, after which you should be able to open it in your word processor of choice.  (You can call the first part of the filename anything you like, as long as it ends in .doc).

I’ll mention this to the technical people and see if it can be sorted.
