For the council's cabinet (elected members), meeting in public. The decision it supports: which of three options to adopt to save £350,000 a year from libraries.

Verdict: Not presentable
Deck rating: 1,145
Slides: 7 (brief: 5-8)
Design quality: 64%

Why it is not presentable

Layout defect: something off the slide, colliding, too small or too faint to read
Quoted a figure the analysis says not to quote
Did not give the analysis's recommendation within the first two slides
Drew a conclusion from a figure without its caveat
A slide the judges rated as needing work

In detail

Slide 3 quotes 6,300: the unverified 6,300-signature petition.
Caveat missing: respondents were mostly weekly users (82%, against 21% of card holders), not representative of residents.
Slide 4: Chart labels at 9 pt, too small to read (2 times)
