The Leader introduced the Authority Monitoring Report (AMR) which covered the monitoring period 1st April 2017 to 31st March 2018 and was used to assess the effectiveness of Haringey’s planning policies and to inform any future revisions to policies or their implementation.

RESOLVED
Reasons for decision
The publication of the Authority Monitoring Report is a requirement of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 (as amended) (“the Act”). Approval of the AMR 2017/18 for publication will ensure that the Council meets its statutory obligations for planning performance monitoring.
Alternative options considered
The Act 2011 requires local planning authorities to produce monitoring reports. The Council considers that Haringey’s existing procedure of annual monitoring is an effective way for presenting the effectiveness of planning policies, within existing resources. As such, no other options were considered.
