The list below is a record of advice the Planning Inspectorate has provided in respect of the Planning Act 2008 process.
There is a statutory duty under section 51 of the Planning Act 2008 to record the advice that is given in relation to an application or a potential application and to make this publicly available. Advice we have provided is recorded below together with the name of the person or organisation who asked for the advice and the project it relates to. The privacy of any other personal information will be protected in accordance with our Information Charter which you should view before sending information to the Planning Inspectorate.
Note that after a project page has been created for a particular application, any advice provided that relates to it will also be published under the ‘s51 advice’ tab on the relevant project page.
Advice given between between 1 October 2009 and 14 April 2015 has been archived. View the archived advice.
Enquiry
A number of our Association members have asked whether, in view of the unprecedented interest in this project, in addition to recording on the PINS website that the ExA Report has been sent to SoS, it would be possible to alert IPs by sending one of your PINS notifications to all IPs?
Many had assumed that the timescale was three months plus a further three months for SoS, rather than the SoS having three months from receipt of the ExA Report.
Advice given
PINS will not notify IPs individually when the report is submitted. IPs should check the website regularly as this will be updated when the report is submitted to the SoS, as you are aware, this must be by 11 June 2014.
If IPs have signed up for email alerts on the case they should receive an email alerting them that the case has been submitted to the secretary of state. IPs can still sign up for email updates should they so wish.
Please note that PINS will inform Individuals IPs when the SoS decision is made. The decision along with the ExA report will then published on the website.
