How do the outcomes of the function/service/policy meet or hinder other policies, values or objectives of the public authority (if applicable)? 7. What factors or forces are at play that could contribute or detract from the outcomes identified earlier? Step 3 Consideration of data and information To make planning decisions consistent with the Development Plan and other guidance. To bring about or prevent development as set out in the Development Plan. To make decisions on time. To do this with high quality customer service. In principle, the whole residential, visitor and business communities of the Borough. More specifically, those affected by development or intended beneficiaries of development. A particular concern is groups who could be missed out from our usual means of communication and engagement. National legislation and guidance, the Council s Constitution, Statement of Community Involvement, and Service specific plans and Customer Service Charter. Principally the Development Management and Support teams of Planning Service. The development decisions are guided by the Development Plan.

Further information on non-users and non-respondents, to see why they are not engaged with. Via other officers (e.g. Access Officer, Economic Development Officers) and established interest groups (see SCI) and partners (e.g. LSP). 12.
