I wish to register and make representations in regard to the application for development at Hinkley Point. I appreciate that I cannot do this until the IPC has accepted the application but (assuming that it does so) I shall wish to register then.

Despite statements in guidance issued by the IPC, and despite a search of the website, I have been unable to find the online registration form which is said to be available. Can you please direct me to it?

Advice given

Thank you for your recent email. You are correct in stating that the registration period for the Hinkley Point C application has yet to open.

If the Infrastructure Planning Commission (IPC) does accept the application for examination, our Hinkley Point C project webpage will be updated to reflect the application?s current status and you will be able to register online directly from this page during the relevant time period (or use it to request a hard copy of the prescribed form).

The direct link to the registration form will appear near the top of page in its own clearly labelled box. A link to the specific Hinkley Point C project page is provided below:

http://infrastructure.independent.gov.uk/projects/south-west/hinkley-point-c-new-nuclear-power-station/

If the application is accepted for examination the developer will publish details about registration, including the relevant deadlines, in one or more local newspapers, as well as a national newspaper. Site notices offering the same information will be placed in the vicinity of the main site and the various associated development sites.

I trust this response is helpful. If you have any further questions, our enquiries line is also available on 0303 444 5000.
