Agenda item

Report of the Director of Markets & Consumer Protection.

The Committee considered a report of the Director of Markets and Consumer Protection that sought approval to the draft City of London Corporation Air Quality Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) for public consultation.

In response to queries around the proportion of development proposals which were air quality neutral, the Port Health & Public Protection Director advised that the majority of applications were already such but that the Plan was intended to increase the proportion further. He also agreed to include reference to both air and ground source heat pumps within the next version of the Plan.

RESOLVED: That the draft SPD be approved for an eight week public consultation period.
