Minutes:

Members requested that the minutes of the meeting held on the 17 November 2011 were amended to reflect that a precedent had been set at the meeting held on the 20 October 2011 where an additional speaker was permitted to speak on a Public Path Extinguishment order.

 

The Democratic Support Officer sought clarification from the Monitoring Officer and advised the committee the additional speaker was allowed to speak under 11.2 of Probity in Planning, the code of good practice for Members and Officers in connection with the determination of Planning and associated applications. The section of the code states that in the case of Public Rights of Way applications a further participant is allowed to speak after the officer presentation and other speakers.

 

The Democratic Support Officer advised that a precedent had not been set and this was confirmed by the Lawyer.

 

Agreed the minutes of the meeting held on 17 November 2011.
