Query 1: I wondered whether it would be possible to receive an email notification when the latest deadline?s submissions are published? At this stage in the examination, the gaps between the deadlines are very short. It therefore makes it very important that we have access to the documents as soon as they?re available. Rather than having to check every day, it would be of great help if an email could sent simply flagging that they?ve been published. Might that be possible?
Query 2: That?s helpful. I suppose I was confused because I have previously received a number of notifications about the project, so had assumed that I would get all notifications. Should it not be the case that all registered parties receive all the notifications as a matter of course?
Query 3: The one that?s caused me problems recently was the lack of a notification that the deadline 7 documents had been published. It was important because comments on the documents was requested only a week later, making it important to gain access promptly. Was there a notification? If so, I wonder why I didn?t get it.
Query 4: Sorry to be a pain, but I?ve just received three separate email notifications about the same rule 17 letter. A different reference is given in the body of each of the emails. See attached.
Any chance you could correct your system such that I get a notification, but just the one?

Query 1: You are able to receive updates if you sign up to the ?Email updates? on the right hand side of the project page below (you can do this for every National Infrastructure project):

For info, documents received for deadline 8 will be published today
Query 2: We do have you down as an interested party on River Humber. Therefore, you should have received all notifications sent so far regarding procedural decisions and notifications from the Examining Authority. Your IP reference is: 10031562
The updates field on the project website is slightly different, in that anyone can input their email address to receive an automatic email when the banner in the project page is updated- for example when deadline documents have been published.
Query 3 and 4: Notification that documents have been published isn?t something which we are obliged to do statutorily, although we did provide a banner update at deadline 7, so anyone who signed up to web updates would have received the update. This is what your original query was about.
The notifications that we send to interested parties are slightly different. We are statutorily obliged to notify all registered interested parties of procedural decisions and notifications from the ExA, in accordance with Rules 9 and 21 of the Infrastructure Planning: Examination Rules 2010: 9. As soon as practicable after making any procedural decision, the Examining authority must notify all interested parties of the decision. 21: Relevant representations, written representations or documents must be made available by the Commission to all interested parties and to anyone who requests an opportunity to inspect and take copies of them but this does not include notifying of the publication of all documents on our website; it is the responsibility of all parties with an interest in the examination to monitor the website for progress in the examination, using the Examination Timetable for reference of deadline dates. As stated in the Rule 8 letter issued 17 September 2015: All persons are able to visit the relevant project page on our website to stay informed of the progress of the examination of the application.
In reference to the separate issue you raised regarding receiving notification of the Rule 17 letter 26 February three times, this is because for this particular NSIP project you are registered as an Interested Party (for which your reference number is 10031562), a Statutory Party (reference number RHGP-SP011) and as an Affected Person (reference number RHGP-AFP007); when issuing Rule 17 letters we are required to notify all organisations/persons who come under these categories. You can request to cease being registered as an Interested Party to this application by submitting a request in writing to the Examining Authority, but you would still receive two copies of future correspondence as statutory parties and affected persons can not cease to be registered.
The fourth email notification you received was due to you registering to receive project updates via email. These emails will notify you whenever there is any update to the specific project website.
