Enquiry

How can members of Save Manston Airport (SMA) effectively make their views heard to The Planning Inspectorate at the Pre-Application stage of the process.

Advice given

As you are aware, The Planning Inspectorate does not have a formal role in receiving representations on the scheme at this stage of the process. We continue to encourage yourself, Save Manston Airport and its members to contact RiverOak directly during the Pre-Application stage of the process. The amount of correspondence in terms of numbers received from specific parties has no bearing on how we approach our Pre-Application Advice. If SMA would like to raise specific points to The Planning Inspectorate during the Pre-Application stage, we would encourage SMA to ask their members to raise their specific points through a SMA representative/s who could act as a single point of contact with PINS.
The Planning Inspectorate encourages all parties to access further information about the process and making a representation through The Planning Inspectorate website. Advice Note 8 series should help give yourself, and SMA advice on how to have your say in the planning process.
