It is our understanding that PINS has received an application from RiverOak, under S53 of the Planning Act 2008 to seek to obtain right of entry, to the Manston Airport site, but that no decision on this is forthcoming from PINS despite the application having been made on the first of July.
Advice given
We are currently processing RiverOak’s application under s53 of the Planning Act 2008 for rights of entry to carry out a range of surveys and site investigations – no decision has yet been made.
