A webcast recording showing council members walking out will be reinstated from Monday lunchtime, the borough council has said.
The walkout of Tory enironment committee members left opposition councillors to continue by themselves.
But the webcast that had been posted on the borough council website, has since been taken down.
This is because , according to Ms Crowe, that "allegations have been made about individual members, the governance arrangements and the role of officers."
The decision has caused considerable concern with accusations that the council is not acting transparently.
Mr Kendall added: "The Council has talked a lot about openness and transparency but the webcast decision makes a complete mockery of that claim. Why should our residents not have access to the webcast today and over the weekend?"
Proceedings turned sour when Phil Mynott, (Brentwood North) had asked the Brentwood Borough Council environment committee on Wednesday evening, if he could debate the practicality of transporting grit across the borough.
The request came after a lengthy and thorny debate on several issues relating to recycling and rubbish collection.
But instead chairman Tony Sleep and his Tory colleagues walked out without actually having called an end to the meeting.
The recording was put up temporarily but taken down soon after.
A council spokesman said: "The Council is looking into the circumstances of the environment panel meeting held on January 30. The webcast from this meeting will be available on the web from Monday lunchtime."
