Minutes
This article is about the written record of a meeting. For the unit of time, see
minute. For the unit of Measurement see Latitude#Subdivisions Minutes are the instant written record of a
meeting or
hearing. They often give an overview of the structure of the meeting, starting with a list of those present, a statement of the various issues before the participants, and each of their responses thereto. They are often created at the moment of the hearing by a
typist or
court recorder at the meeting, who may record the meeting in
shorthand, and then type the minutes and issue them to the participants afterwards. Alternatively, the meeting may be
audiorecorded and the minutes typed later. The minutes of certain entities, such as a
corporate board of directors, must be kept and are important legal documents.
