Where do answers come from, and why is everything cited?

Answers are built from the council's own published documents — the minutes that record what was decided, plus the agendas, officer reports and attachments tied to each agenda item. It works the way a person would: start from the minutes for the outcome, then read the supporting papers for the detail.

Nothing is answered from an AI's general knowledge or opinion. Every statement carries a numbered citation back to the exact source document — usually the exact page — so you can click through and check any claim against the original record yourself.

If the tool can't find something in the record, it says so plainly rather than guessing.
