The Council has taken external legal advice in relation to the discharge of conditions for the University development at Roger Dudman Way. That advice was received today (9 September 2013).

In acting on that advice it is necessary to withdraw the report to the Committee and defer consideration of the discharge of conditions. This will enable a further screening opinion to be undertaken in accordance with the applicable regulations.

It will also enable the Council to continue to engage with objectors and the University and officers will report to the Committee in due course. 

This application was withdrawn by officers so that the Council can seek external legal advice in relation to the discharge of conditions.
