The recommended response and a summary of key comments was attached to the report.  On the consultation on the partial review of the Regional Spatial Strategy members expressed concerns at the extremely short timescale of the consultation exercise and felt representations should be made about this to the Government Office North West an that the Local Government Association should be informed of those concerns.

      Sub-Regional Leaders at its meeting on 13 June, be endorsed.
