The Chief Officer Communities & Business presented a report which sought approval of the final draft of Community Plan for the period 2016-19.  The document and its supporting Action Plan had been developed following comprehensive consultation with Members, residents, town and parish councils, a wide range of voluntary and community organisations and partner agencies. 

The results of the public consultation were appended and had been taken into consideration in the final draft.  The action plan and associated success measures were the result of discussion with partner agencies about realistic delivery of the aspirations in the Community Plan. 

It was requested that population figures be revisited to ensure correlation with other documents; that time by train to London specify from where and the timing checked; and noted Cllr Clayton was not a Sevenoaks District Councillor.

Members noted that consideration had been given to impacts under the Public Sector Equality Duty.

Resolved:  That it be recommended to Council that, subject to the amendments discussed, the final draft Community Plan and strategic level action plan for the period 2016-19, be approved.
