Please could you clarify an issue from yesterday?s Issue Specific Hearing.
I recall that Mr. Macey had indicated that he must be in possession of a signed S.106 agreement before he sends his recommendation off to the Secretary of State. If we are to assume he has until November to do this can we also assume then that he can be furnished with the signed S.106 at this time in readiness to be submitted with his recommendation?
This seems at odds with the date he later set for the submission of the final signed S.106 ? i.e. 9th August 2012. Can you clarify the two positions?

I think you are right that he has referred to needing to provide the signed s106 agreement with his recommendation. However, once he has closed the examination he will not be in a position to receive any further material. This is why he has clarified later on in the hearing that he must have the final, signed s106 agreement by the 9th August. The very latest by when he must close the examination is the 14 September (see examination timetable).
