The scrutiny committee received a report setting out the progress that had been achieved on implementing the recommendations contained in the Parking Strategy and updated by the task group. 

Again the scrutiny committee was disappointed with the responses.  It was agreed that officers would be contacted and asked for an explanation for the delays.  They would then be invited to a future meeting to explain to Overview and Scrutiny Committee.  It was suggested that the explanation should include information about the High Street Public Realm Enhancement scheme which was referred to in the update.

RESOLVED –

that officers be asked to provide an explanation for the delays in implementing the recommendations and report back to the next available meeting.
