Called on in meetings (transcript)

Where the automatic transcript of a meeting's video shows the chair calling on this person by title and surname, with the surname matched to that meeting's attendance list in the minutes (never to the voice). Each entry links to that moment in the city's video and quotes about 20 seconds of transcript text after the call-on, word for word. The transcript is made by speech-recognition software and may contain errors; the video is the record.
