The Applicant has a duty to consult you as prescribed under section 42 of the Planning Act 2008. The Application is expected to be submitted to the Planning Inspectorate Q3 2022. If the Application is subsequently accepted for Examination, parties are able to register as an Interested Party by making a Relevant Representation for the appointed Examining Authority to consider.
