In response to a supplementary question from Mr Welling the Cabinet Member for Community Services explained that consultation would start in early December and was to last for four to six weeks.  The choices as to what NewSPAL had proposed would be laid out clearly in the consultation as well as the status quo option.  She went on to explain that the need to consult again had been a real concern for the Cabinet.  The Leader thanked NewSPAL for all the work they had done.

In reply to a statement from Ms Thornton that the written response did not address her questions the Cabinet Member for Environment & Transport explained that much of what she raised was outside of the control of this Council.  He stated that her questions would be passed onto the Government Minister.
