The Executive considered the Surrey Heath Authority Monitoring Report (AMR) which had been produced in line with the requirements set out in the Localism Act 2011. The AMR monitored the period from 1 April 2019 to 31 March 2020. The purpose of the AMR was to provide details of the actions which had been taken to implement a Local Development Plan and the Local Development Scheme, to indicate the extent to which policies in the current Surrey Heath Local Plan had been achieved, and to identify any solutions and changes where targets were not being met.
The proposal to report the AMR to the Performance and Finance Scrutiny Committee in future was noted.
RESOLVED that
(i) the Surrey Heath Local Plan Authority Monitoring Report be approved for the purpose of making the document publically available on the Council’s website; and
(ii) authority be delegated to the Executive Head of Regulatory in consultation with the Planning & People Portfolio Holder to approve publication of the Authority Monitoring Report from 2021 onwards; and
(iii) the Authority Monitoring Report be hereafter reported to the Performance & Finance Scrutiny Committee on an annual basis.
