Issue - meetings

Consideration was given to the above report.

Members welcomed the content of the report and the consultation responses devised by Officers.

It was suggested that the response should say more about the importance of agriculture- as a producer of food and as an important business and that the role of agricultural land should be given greater prominence in the debate over the development of land.

It was reported that any comments made would carry more weight if positive wording was put forward in some cases.

RESOLVED

That Cabinet be recommended to approve the consultation response detailed

in Appendix 1 of the report.
