At its first meeting
each municipal year, the Planning Committee appoints a
sub-committee which meets once a year to:
·
select a random sample of up to 20
delegated decisions on a range of applications and examine and
evaluate between 5 and 10 of them to assess whether relevant
planning policies and criteria were applied in each
case;
·
review planning appeal performance;
and
·
scrutinise overturned
decisions.
The sub-committee
consists of the Chair and Deputy Chair of the Planning Committee,
together with three other Members of the Committee.
