To consider a report of the Executive Councillor (Economic Development & Regeneration)

The Supplementary Planning Document has been developed to provide guidance and assistance to developers and end users of developments, outlining how the Council intends to work with and support employers to maximise local employment and skills benefits from new developments, and therefore to support implementation of policy AED5 in the Core Strategy.

The Executive is recommended to formally adopt the new Supplementary Planning Document, to support implementation of Core Strategy Policy AED5.
