·       Amended version of the SPD incorporating the proposed amendments as detailed in Appendix B.

·       The main issues raised as part of the consultation as detailed in paragraph 4.4 of the report.

·       The Air Quality SPD would also need to be formally adopted by Torridge District Council.

 

In response to a question, the Lead Officer (Planning Officer) advised that he was unable to confirm a date when Torridge District Council would consider the adoption of the SPD.  However, he would confirm the date following the meeting.
