I wish to register my Parish Councils' interest in this project
Advice given
Thank you for your recent email.
Please be aware that both East Huntspill and Puriton Parish Councils fall within the definition of a relevant parish councils under Schedule 1 of the Applications: Prescribed Form & Procedure Regulations 2009 for the Hinkley Point C application. This makes your parish councils statutory consultees and they are therefore already considered ?interested parties?.
Interested parties will receive all of the IPC?s general correspondence regarding the project; will be notified of the application?s key milestones; will have the opportunity to submit further written representations during the application?s examination and can participate in the examination hearings.
If the IPC accepts the application for examination, you may still make a relevant representation via our prescribed form. We encourage people or organisations that wish to make a representation to do so at this stage so that the Examining Authority can take them into consideration when carrying out an initial assessment of the issues in preparation for the Preliminary Meeting.
Details about how and when to make a relevant representation will be publicised by the developer for two successive weeks in one (or more) national and local newspaper and via site notices near the main site and the associated development sites. The IPC will also offer details through the Hinkley Point C project page on our website.
I trust this response is helpful. If you have any further questions, our enquiries line is also available on 0303 444 5000.
