      Could this also refer to the "minutes" of a meeting, or is there another word for that in Irish?

        miontuairiscí

        (mion is an adjective meaning "small" - think of it as "mini", tuarisc is an "account" or "report". Normally, the second half of a compound word is lenited, but I think that this is an example of "DeNTaL DoTS" - the t in tuairisc isn't lenited because of the n in mion).
