Chairman’s Introduction The Chairman noted that there had been responses received in relation to the issues discussed at previous meetings on fly tipping (from the Secretary of State following a letter from the local MP, Nigel Adams) and from Harrogate Borough Council in relation to issues raised around planning informatives/conditions ensuring that appropriate infrastructure was provided at the time of a new build, to incorporate connection to superfast broadband. It was noted that these responses would be circulated to Members following the meeting. In relation to the issues raised on fly tipping a Member considered that more action was required to catch perpetrators at the time of the tipping, with more CCTV in place. It was noted that, recently, Selby District Council had invested in mobile CCTV and it was hoped that this would help to address that issue. The Chairman noted that this would be his final meeting as Chairman, with appointment of Chairman expected to take place at the next meeting of the Committee. He thanked Members and the Clerk for their support during his time in the Chair. It was noted that Vice-Chairman, County Councillor Andy Paraskos, had been ill, and had recently spent a period of time in hospital.
