Cabinet considered a report seeking its agreement for the draft Statement of Community Involvement (SCI) to be published for consultation purposes.  The SCI had been prepared jointly by South Cambridgeshire District Council and Cambridge City Council and set out the approach to community engagement in planning matters.

The Leader welcomed the clarity and accessibility of the SCI and noted that Parish Councils in South Cambridgeshire (and Neighbourhood Forums in Cambridge) would be consulted on all appropriate planning applications as statutory consultees.
