1.1 The existing Section 106 Agreement between the Council and Planestation remains in place by mutual agreement.

1.2 Full Council received a report from me on 21st October 2004. And resolved that;

    1. the existing S106 Agreement will form the basis of public consultation
    2. the Council will engage technical consultants; Stratford

Councillors made it clear that they wished public consultation to be as wide as possible.

1.3 Since then, Stratford has been instructed to review the S106 in a national and local context and report back to the Council in January.

1.4 I have met CPRE and some members of MAG, on 12.11.04, regarding their views of the current S106 and its performance. Other requests for meetings will also be met.
