Writing Minutes

Narrative minutes are very detailed and record the individual names and views.
Resolution minutes record only the decisions reached and, very briefly, the reason for the decision.
Expanded resolution minutes are a compromise between the above two. It provides more information than just the decisions in the Resolution type of minutes, but leaves out the detailed recording of discussions in Narrative minutes by summarising them.
