           Human will request that MPC is  informed of future planning committee  

           meetings, especially with applications that are not supported by MPC.

4.         Any other matters

            Councillor J Weekes asked whose responsibility is the upkeep of the

            footpath from Littlemoor Road through to Grange Paddock as there were               many weeds that needed to be cut back. Councillor G Francis replied that

            is the responsibility of MPC and that he would attend to the problem.
