Required meeting attendees should consist of the Rs... and only the Rs. As and Cs can be optional, but meetings can conclude without them.
Everyone not in the meeting can be updated out of band.
"What action is this person taking in this meeting?" should be a brutally honest question. If the answer is only "listening", then it's a waste of their time.
And also, related point: what is the termination condition of this meeting? And has that been decided and communicated beforehand? I.e. What outcome are we seeking, that when done everyone agrees the meeting is over?
I can't stand agenda-less, "we're meeting to move something forward in some undefined way" meetings.
