Consultation
Community consultation is a process where
Knowsley Council asks members of the public to give their
views on particular issues in order to inform decision making.
We use a range of methods to consult, from completing
questionnaires and sending letters to inviting you to attend
focus groups or discussion forums.
Getting involved in consultation helps both residents and the
council.
