Purpose

To consider the content of the ‘proposed submission’ version of the updated West London Waste Plan (WLWP) and approve the final round of public consultation, consistent with Regulation 19 of the Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012 (as amended), and delegate authority to the Corporate Director Neighbourhoods and Regeneration, in consultation with the Cabinet Member for Regeneration, Planning and Property, for subsequent actions, including submission of the proposed version of the WLWP to the Secretary of State for examination.

Decision

Cabinet RESOLVED:

(1)  To approve the publication of the proposed submission version of the West London Waste Plan (‘Regulation 19’) and associated evidence base documents for consultation and consultation arrangements outlined in the report;

(2)  To delegate authority to the Head of Planning and Development Services (in consultation with the Corporate Director of Neighbourhoods and Regeneration) to make minor modifications to the Proposed Submission version of the West London Waste Plan (WLWP) and accompanying documents prior to public consultation, including inserting any outstanding process or background elements, making presentational, typographical and accuracy amendments and finalising evidence base documents (in conjunction with other participating authorities);

(3)  To agree that the WLWP in its current form is ‘sound’ and therefore to recommend the Plan as such to Full Council in November, and recommend that Full Council in turn authorise submission of the Plan and associated documents to the Secretary of State for examination, subject to the conclusion of the Regulation 19 consultation. These documents will include the representations received during the Regulation 19 consultation process and any suggested amendments to the Plan in response to these.
