In Latin, "minute" means small or tiny. In the 16th century, when a record was kept of official meetings, it was first written in shorthand, which was a very small or "minute" script. The text would later be transcribed into regular size. Thus the record was called the "minutes" of the meeting, originally pronounced "my-noots."

When, during a meeting, a certain course of action is agreed or tasks are assigned, then weeks later when everyone has forgotten everything (don't laugh, this does happen) the minutes are there to remind and eventually inspire people to actually do what the committee exists to do.
