(a)       2023B Programme Update

(b)       2024A Programme New Requests

A report providing the Sub-Committee with a progress update for the 2023B programme following agreement at the January 2024 meeting to undertake the statutory consultation and with the list of new requests for potential inclusion in the 2024A programme.

The Sub-Committee received a report providing a progress update on the progress of the 2023B Waiting Restriction Review Programme and the list of new requests for potential inclusion in the 2024A programme.  A summary of new requests for potential inclusion in the 2024A programme was attached to the report at Appendix 1.

The report explained that with regard to the 2023B Programme Update there had been insufficient time since the previous meeting to carry out the necessary processes for conducting and feeding back the results of the statutory consultation.  It was expected that the results of the consultation would be submitted to the next meeting so that decisions could be made regarding the delivery of schemes within the programme. 

Resolved –

(1)        That the report be noted;

(2)        That the requests made for waiting restriction changes in Appendix 1 attached to the report be investigated by officers as part of the 2024A review programme be agreed, subject to officers confirming what part of Devonshire Park in Church Ward the restrictions would apply to;

(3)        That the officer recommendations, following investigation of the new requests, be shared with Ward Councillors, providing opportunity for local consultation (informal) and for their comments to be included in the next report to the Sub-Committee;

(4)        That should funding permit, a further report be submitted to the Sub-Committee seeking agreement to conduct the Statutory Consultation on the recommended schemes for the 2024A programme;

(5)        That no public inquiry be held into the proposals.
