Enquiry from Statutory Party regarding confusion over Rule 8 letter.
Advice given
It was advised that the Rule 8 letter sets out the timetable for the examination of the above North Killingholme New Power Station application. Alongside this it was explained that the East Midlands Ambulance Service NHS Trust was identified as a statutory party for the application as prescribed in Schedule 1 of the The Infrastructure Planning (Applications: Prescribed Forms and Procedure) Regulations 2009. The Examining Authority when making decisions regarding the application must notify everyone as defined in s.88(3)(c)-(d) of the Planning Act 2008; therefore the letter was sent to East Midlands Ambulance Service NHS Trust as a statutory party for that project.
It was explained that following the Rule 8 letter, the East Midlands Ambulance Service NHS Trust would only be contacted in relation to procedural decisions or changes made to the examination timetable. However, it was noted that should they wish to fully participate in the examination of the application and therefore become an Interested Party 'IP' for the project, they could do so by writing to the Planning Inspectorate by 4 October 2013.
