Good morning Ms Wood
With regards to your FOI enquiry can you please clarify what you mean by
'employ'? Is this in relation to using consultants to process planning
applications, or in relation to commissioning consultants to undertake a
specific/one off pieces of work, for example a retail impact assessment
(and if so, is this just in regards to planning applications)?
