Query as to whether Ceredigion CC need to register to become an interested party

Ceredigion County Council has been identified as a relevant ?A? authority under s43(2) of the PA2008. Following acceptance of the Mynydd y Gwynt Wind Farm application for examination, Ceredigion CC will be invited to attend the preliminary meeting and you will receive the ?rule 4 and 6? letter (notice formally appointing the Examining Authority (ExA), the ExA?s initial assessment of issues and notice of the preliminary meeting) and ?rule 8? letter (the timetable for examination) as well as notification of any changes to the examination timetable.
If Ceredigion CC wishes to be an interested party for the duration of the examination, you can either register and submit a relevant representation (the registration period closes on Friday 17 October at 11.59pm) or, following the issue of the rule 8 letter, submit in writing a request to the ExA to become an interested party (this can be done at any time during the examination however the ExA will set a deadline early in the timetable for requests from un-registered statutory consultees to become interested parties).
As Relevant Representations help the ExA with compiling its initial assessment of principle issues and assist with knowledge of the local area, we advise registering and submitting a Relevant Representation and confirming your interested party status early in the process. The registration form also includes questions regarding participation in examination to help the case team resource appropriately. Please follow the link below to view the online registration form:
