The following points were noted:

·       Issues around staff sickness and turnover were discussed and further information would be sought

·       The committee would receive a further update on the position with the Land Charges service at their next meeting

·       An item on ‘Delivery of new homes across Dorset’ would be considered at the September meeting of the committee

·       The indicator relating to Subject Access Requests was reported on a monthly basis and therefore no data was available this month

·       The position with reporting on PL22 (planning applications overturned at appeal) would be confirmed following the meeting.
