1.I?d be grateful to receive any further information on the timetable for the consideration of the project. Has the commissioner detailed one yet. In particular I would like at least a rough estimate for our submission of the Local Impact Report. An initial draft has been completed but it needs updating and I am trying to work out a timetable for internal consultation.

2.what is the latest it can be submitted

Advice given

1.We're hoping to send out the rule 6 letter next week which will contain inter alia the draft timetable for the examination. The date for the preliminary meeting has been set for the 22 February in Whitstable. We normally try to issue the rule 8 letter within one week of the preliminary meeting taking place. The rule 8 letter will contain amongst other things the deadline for the Local Impact Report which could be at the earliest 21 days from receipt of the rule 8 letter. We hope this gives you a rough indication of when the LIR may be due at the earliest.

2.Sorry that it wasn't clear enough in our earlier email. The latest that the LIR can be submitted is by the deadline that the Examining Authority (the commissioner appointed to examine this case) sets in the rule 8 letter. The earliest that this deadline can be is 21 days from receipt of the Rule 8 letter. There is nothing in the legislation which sets a latest point by when the deadline for the LIR could be.
