The Planning Committee met on 7 September 2022 to take decisions on applications on its planning schedule, and to note a report on recent planning appeals. The minutes available to us do not list the individual decisions on each application. Councillor Howells declared that he had spoken with parties connected to application E22/0147 but had an open mind and would vote.

Scrutiny means councillors checking how the council performs. The committee then set out a list of requests for more information, including a visit to Windmill Farm, a children's residential home, once it is handed over.
The Committee scrutinised the 2021/22 end-of-year reviews for three service areas: People and Business Change, Law and Standards, and Finance. Members questioned officers on home working, data security, staff recruitment and retention, and the cost-of-living payments. The minute records requests for further reports and information, including a report on staff recruitment and retention, but no formal decision.
Council met on 19 July 2022 to agree appointments to governing bodies, note the 2021/22 treasury management report, approve the annual Welsh Language monitoring report and adopt a three-year dog control order for public spaces.
