The agenda business for this meeting was not considered at that briefing session. Following the briefing session the PTFG convened to discuss the outcome of the briefing session which led to a slight delay in the start of this meeting. Mr Smith apologised for the later start as he welcomed members of the public and the press representative to the meeting. He referred to the emergency evacuation arrangements on the screens and outlined the speaking procedure for the meeting. He explained that as a result of the coming into force on Wednesday 6 August 2014 of The Openness of Local Government Bodies Regulations 2014 SI No 2095, which brought into effect section 40 of the Local Audit and Accountability Act 2014, visual and/or audio recordings of this meeting could be made by those present. He requested that anyone who made such a recording should do so discreetly in order not to cause a disturbance to the proceedings. Mr Smith advised that there were no items in the schedule of planning applications (agenda item 05) which had been deferred or withdrawn. It was noted that apologies for absence had been received from Mr Elliott, Mrs Hardwick, Mr Hayes, Mr Ridd, Mr Robertson and Mr Woolley. All other members of the committee were present for this meeting. 113 Approval of Minutes On behalf of Mr Elliott (who was unable to be present) Mr Potter sought clarification of para (iv) on page [M7] in relation to planning application SDNP/13/04033/FUL (STED) – Minsted Farm Minsted Lane Minsted Stedham.
