agenda items
Points for discussion
Agenda items are the individual topics, questions, or matters scheduled for discussion at a meeting.
The phrase treats each point on an agenda as a discrete unit to be addressed: We have three agenda items to cover before noon.
In bureaucratic contexts, something becomes an agenda item when it's formally added for consideration: Climate policy is now an agenda item at every summit.
