    The authors introduce a weaker notion of the concept of a veering taut triangulation of a \(3\)-manifold, recently introduced by \textit{I. Agol} in his preprint [Ideal triangulations of pseudo-Anosov mapping tori, \url{arXiv:1008.1606}]. They use this weaker version in order to show that all veering triangulations admit strict angle structures. In particular, this then allows to show that there exist veering taut triangulations which are not layered (in fact the manifolds in this type of examples are not fibred over the circle). This answers a question asked by I. Agol.
