For the Committee to consider and agree the report of the TEC Inquiry into Sustainable School Travel in Buckinghamshire

The Chairman welcomed the attendees to the meeting and asked for their thoughts on the document contained within the agenda pack.

Mr Roberts wished to record his views that Mrs Wager had done a fantastic job on her report; with plenty of research and detail included. Mr Roberts noted that a concerted effort from schools and parents alike would be required in order to make this initiative a success, but that this was a positive start.

Mrs Clarke felt that it would be beneficial for this item to be discussed again in the new school term and that having a School Liaison Representative present at the meeting might be an idea to explore.

The Chairman was heartened by the fact that individuals had been willing to invest in this enquiry and advised that he would be taking this enquiry to the next Cabinet meeting in April 2017.

Mrs Sutherland explained that further information on this enquiry would be provided in the 6-month update and also in the Member Briefings and – at the request of Mr Roberts – the Member Inductions.

The Committee then AGREED the recommendations contained within the report.

For the Committee to agree to the Outline Scope for an Inquiry into Planning for the Growth Agenda.
