Published 18th August 2008

This plan contains all the key decisions which the Council expects to take over the next four months. The plan is rolled forward every month. It will next be published on 15th September 2008 and will then contain all the key decisions for the 4 month period 1st October 2008 – 31st January 2009. The definition of a key decision is given in the Council’s Constitution and set out below.

A decision notice for each key decision is published within five days of it having been made. This is open for public inspection on the Council’s website: www.tameside.gov.uk, libraries and customer service centres and at the Council Offices, Ashton-under-Lyne.

The law and the Council’s Constitution provides for urgent key decisions to be made provided certain criteria are met. A decision notice will be published for these in exactly the same way.
