Robert's Rules (Section -16) state that “the minutes should contain mainly a record of what was done at the meeting, not what was said by the members.” Minutes are not transcripts of meetings; rather, the document contains a record of actions taken by the body, organized by the meeting's order of business (agenda).
The agenda provides information on the order in which topics will be discussed. An agenda should be circulated in advance to everyone attending the meeting. Minutes are a written record of a meeting. They are instant and describe the discussion and decisions of the meeting.
Minutes serve to both memorialize the actions taken for those attending the meeting as well as for those who were unable to attend the meeting. The minutes are not intended to serve—nor should they serve—as an exact account of who said what and when, or who disagreed with whom.
