My UGLE mother lodge circulates the minutes with the Summons (posted well in advance of the meeting). The WM says that and asks for amendments. If none, he asks for assent "in the manner usual among Freemasons" and when that is given he signs the minute book.

At my US lodge, the former Secretary was fond of reading the minutes, which had a minute-by-minute description of the proceedings of the previous meeting. This was so slumber-inducing that at later meetings the reading of the minutes was just conceded and they were adopted by a vote.

We do not read them aloud, but they are distributed, read silently, and then adopted in the normal roberts rules fashion.
