Enquiry
Advice given to non-interested party on submission of representations during the examination.
Advice given
Thank you for your email with comments regarding the proposed Thorpe Marsh Gas Pipeline project.
As you may be aware, the time for submitting a relevant representation in order to become an interested party for the project closed on 10 March 2015. Unfortunately, the Planning Inspectorate did not receive your relevant representation by the deadline. Therefore, you are not automatically registered as an interested party for the project. Please note however, that this does not mean that you cannot participate in the examination of the application.
Non-interested parties, can also make submissions during examination to the appointed Examining Authority (ExA); it will however be at the discretion of the ExA to decide whether or not to accept such submissions into the examination. If you wish your views to be known by the ExA, I suggest that you either re-submit them as a written representation to examination at Deadline 1 of the final examination timetable, if easier, we can keep your email on the file until deadline 1 and bring it to the attention of the ExA.
Please note that the final examination timetable will be issued shortly after the Preliminary Meeting that will take place on 22 April 2015, in the letter known as Rule 8. In the meantime, I suggest following the website for project news and the Rule 8 letter using below link:

Once again, I would be grateful if you could confirm whether you wish to re-submit comments for the first deadline or you wish us to keep it on file for the Examining Authority to decide.
Please contact us directly should you have any questions.
