Yes, during meetings that are open to the public, under the Openness of Local Government Bodies Regulations 2014 you can:
Verbal reporting or verbal commentary on a meeting as it takes place by a person present at the meeting is not permitted.
The chairman has the right to terminate or suspend proceedings should such activities cause disruption during the meeting.
Closed or private meetings (due to the discussion of confidential or exempt information) cannot be filmed or audio recorded, nor can members of the public be in attendance.
Please note: should you wish to film, record or photograph open meetings we kindly request that you contact democratic services in advance so that suitable provision can be made.
Who can be filmed?
When filming, photographing or recording meetings, you should focus on recording councillors, officers and the individuals who are directly involved in the conduct of the meeting. Members of the public who do not wish to be filmed or photographed should have their wishes adhered to.
What sort of facilities should councils provide?
Councils are required to provide 'reasonable facilities' to facilitate the recording of meetings, such as a designated space to view and hear the meeting, seats and, where space allows, a desk.
