The application Sessions Records and Deliberations allows the management of the workflow for deliberations and decisions of government and collegial bodies. Once a Session has been created, structures that have been added as Proposing Structures can submit Deliberation Proposals. The action can be done by the Responsibles (Head of Unit) of the invited structures, or by delegates that have been granted permission.
Government Bodies that refer to an individual structures follow a different workflow, and deliberation proposals are submitted by the Session Manager itself.
