Decision:
The Cabinet Members agree that charges for detailed drainage advice for major and minor developments should be implemented.
Reasons for the decision:
This approach is beneficial and effective as it will provide applicants with full information at an early stage in the process to enable them to make an informed decision about their proposals and to ensure that the correct information is submitted as part of the application process.
