(2)           That Cabinet adopted and brought into effect the Revised Statement of Community Involvement (SCI) in Appendix 2 to the report to replace the current SCI (2014).

 

REASONS FOR DECISION To formalise the Council’s response to the comments received during the consultation on the draft SCI, and to enable the document to be formally adopted as the Council’s Statement of Community Involvement.
