Thank you for your e mail.
Under paragraph 26 of the Council Procedure Rules (at page 158 of the constitution) only the petition organiser may speak on that agenda item and such speech shall not exceed 5 minutes inclusive of the reading of the substance of the of the petition. On the conclusion of the speech the petition will be discussed by councillors for no more than 15 minutes. On that basis only you or Mrs Hill may speak for 5 minutes. It would not be in order for representatives of Keep Penrith Special to say something on the agenda as well.
Thank you for informing me of the likely attendance of the BBC and ITV.
