Temporary Event Notices - Standing Item

No detail was provided in the agenda pack about the Temporary Event Notice application that was scheduled to be discussed. The report pack contains the agenda and reports pack for a meeting. It does not contain the minutes of the meeting, so it is not possible to know whether any decisions were made.
