In accordance with Procedure Rule 1(3)(c) and the Council’s Public Question Time and Participation at Council and Committee Meetings Scheme, the Chairman of the Council advised of a question from Mr T Kelly of which prior notification had been given. 

Mr Kelly was in attendance and presented his question to the Council, which was as follows:

“Can legal advice be sought via qualified planners to investigate if necessary community facilities such as health facilities, included in planning applications, must be prioritised and give the same importance as energy, water, sewage or telephone connections, and legally in place prior to the commencement of house building by developers?”

A prepared response from the Leader of the Council to the question had been circulated prior to the meeting and the Leader read this out.
