Query regarding local authority status and adequacy of consultation submissions by a party other than the local authority.
Advice given
Your Status is as an A authority, because the project is not based in your authority. Local authorities where an NSIP is based are known as the 'B' local authorities, while 'A' local authorities are those that share a boundary with a 'B' authority.
Any local resident or local resident group, who have a view or complaint about the adequacy of a developer consultation will be advised that they may wish to notify the Local Authority of their views or complaint. The CLG Guidance states that Local Authorities can consider the complaint as part of their representation to the Secretary of State, it would therefore be helpful if your submission includes the Local Authority?s consideration/view on any submissions of this type that you have received. You may also wish to attach their comments to your adequacy of consultation representation.
I attach the relevant guidance for information.
