Will the Examining Authority for Galloper Wind Farm accept and take into consideration our letter of 30 November 2012, submitted to PINS after the close of examination?

Advice given

Thank you for your letter dated 30 November 2012.

As noted in your letter, the examination of Galloper Wind Farm closed at midnight on 29 November 2012. Submissions received after an examination has closed (during the recommendation stage) are not made available to the Examining authority and will not be taken into account within an Examining authority's report to the Secretary of State. The Planning Inspectorate will, however, hold your letter until the end of the recommendation stage and then send it separately to the relevant Secretary of State, immediately following the submission of the Examining authority's recommendation report. It is then for the Secretary of State to decide whether or not to take your letter into consideration.
