Report of the Director of Markets and Consumer Protection.

The Committee considered a report of the Director of Markets and Consumer Protection which sought approval of the City of London Corporation’s Air Quality Supplementary Planning Document (SPD), new supporting SPD Consultation and Adoption Statements.

In response to a Member’s question on ensuring that the air quality measures are adopted by those carrying out building work within the Square Mile, the Director of Markets and Consumer Protection explained that whilst the team do not carry out physical inspections of the construction sites, compliance is checked during the construction phase. The Chairman suggested that this question be tabled at the next Planning and Transportation meeting.

RESOLVED – That the Committee:

a)    approve the amended SPD and new supporting SPD Consultation and Adoption Statements, subject to any comments received; and

b)      recommend to the Planning and Transportation Committee that the SPF is adopted.
