Cabinet received a report of the Head of Community and Environmental Services.  Councillor Williams introduced the report and explained that Watford Rural Parish Council had requested to terminate the agreement.  A representative from the Parish Council had sent their apologies to Cabinet that they were unable to attend the meeting. The original agreement was established about 66 years ago and required mutual consent to be terminated.  The Watford Rural Parish Council thought it was in their best interest to terminate and the report before Cabinet set out why it was also in the best interests for Watford Borough Council to agree to the termination.

            RESOLVED:

            That Cabinet:

1.         Accepts Watford Rural Parish Council’s request to terminate the agreement from January 2019.

2.         Agrees that all future requests for burials from Watford Rural Parish are treated as non-residents and charged accordingly in line with agreed annual fees and charges.
