It can occur on either a day of a meeting or on another day.\n 'office holder' means the holder of a part-time public office;\n 'official travel time' is the reasonable period, certified by a Chair, that an office holder spends travelling on official business away from the metropolitan area of the capital city or the environs of the town in which the office holder lives. It does not include time spent travelling between an office holder's home and principal place of work.
