(b) the determination of any matter affecting the authority,
(whether, in either case, proceedings have been commenced or are in contemplation).


Members of the public are welcome to attend this meeting when items listed under Part A of the agenda are being considered.

Members Please Note:

  • Would those Members who sit on the Planning Inspections Committee please retain their planning application papers for use on any subsequent site visits.
  • The Chairman requests that that wherever possible, where a site is visible from the public highway and other public vantage points, Members should familiarise themselves self with the site before the meeting.
  • Any Member who wishes a particular plan or plans to be displayed at the meeting is asked to notify Nick Wright (01395 517548) as soon as possible after receiving the agenda to ensure that the appropriate transparency is made.
  • You must declare the nature of any personal or prejudicial interests in an item whenever it becomes apparent that you have an interest in the business being considered.
  • Where you have a personal interest because the business relates to or is likely to affect a body of which you are a member or manager as an EDDC nominee or appointee, then you need only disclose that interest when (and if ) you speak on the item. The same rule applies if you have a personal interest in relation to a body exercising functions of a public nature.
  • Make sure you say the reason for your interest as this has to be included in the minutes.
  • If your interest is prejudicial you must leave the room unless you have obtained a dispensation from the Council’s Standards Committee or where Para 12(2) of the Code can be applied. Para 12(2) allows a Member with a prejudicial interest to stay for the purpose of making representations, answering questions or giving evidence relating to the business but only at meetings where the public are also allowed to make representations. If you do remain, you must not exercise decision-making functions or seek to improperly influence the decision; you must leave the meeting room once you have made your representation.
  • You also need to declare when you are subject to the party whip before the matter is discussed.
