QUESTIONS FROM MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC

A maximum of 15 minutes will be allocated to public questions submitted in writing to Democratic Services (democratic.services@trafford.gov.uk) by 4pm on the working day prior to the meeting. Questions must be within the remit of the Committee or be relevant to items appearing on the agenda and will be submitted in the order in which they were received.

 

Minutes:

Members were asked to reconsider a previous resolution made by the Committee relating to planning application 95578/FUL/18, which Members were minded to refuse at their meeting of 14 March 2019. The request was made by an individual seeking to use the procedure for questions to Executive/Committees. However, this is not an appropriate use of that procedure as:

 

·                     It is a request rather than a question;

·                     It would require Members to revisit a matter that they have already considered and determined;

·                         It would require Members to debate and pass a resolution – this is beyond the remit of public questions;

·                         Officers have already advised that the extent of the alterations proposed to the scheme would require a separate planning application and it is not appropriate to ask Members to take a different view on what is a matter for Officers;

·                         There are alternative and appropriate procedures to challenge the Council’s decision to refuse a planning application by way of an appeal to the Planning Inspectorate.
