If so, it must give its reason why and undertake further consultation before issuing a final decision. As appropriate, this may require the matter to be re-examined. For the reasons set out in section 4 of the report, this option has been discarded.

Minutes:
The Cabinet Member for Planning introduced report MCa/19/39 which provided Cabinet Members with an update on the Eye Neighbourhood Plan. It was noted that in Paragraph 4.2, the dates detailed in the second bullet point should read 8 Nov – 20 Dec 2018. Councillor Burn expressed thanks to the Town Council and Officers who worked closely together to respond to questions raised during this process.
The recommendations were moved by Councillor Burn. Councillor Gould seconded the recommendations and thanked officers for their hard work in the progression of the Plan, in particular Paul Bryant, Neighbourhood Planning Officer.
A discussion took place regarding the use of the words ‘made’ and ‘adopted’ within the report. The Neighbourhood Planning Officer advised that the regulations require use of the word ‘made’, however it was agreed that for the benefit of members of the public who may not be familiar with the reports, the word ‘adopted’ was more appropriate.
