Enquiry type

Query relating to the next stages of the process following the close of the relevant representations period, specifically querying at what stage Local Impact Reports and Written Representations will be required from Local Authorities.

Advice given

After the registration period has closed, the Secretary of State will appoint the Examining Authority.

Once appointed, the Examining Authority has up to 21 days to review the application and all relevant representations and identify the initial principal issues for examination. These are included together with a draft timetable, in a letter inviting all interested parties to attend the Preliminary Meeting, to discuss the procedure to be adopted for the examination.

After the Preliminary Meeting, the Examining Authority will issue a procedural decision to all interested parties, stating how the application will be examined, including a timetable for the examination. The final timetable will include details about when Written Representations can be made, and when Local Impact Reports are to be submitted.
