A letter from Lorraine Robinson requesting the IPCs comments on Ms Robinson's letter to the Rt Hon George Osbourne MP, regarding her thoughts on the Knutsford to Bowdon Roads Improvement proposal.

Cyngor a roddwyd

The following advice was given:

This proposal is currently at the pre-application stage of the process. Due to the nature of the planning regime established by the Planning Act 2008 (PA 2008), at the pre-application stage the IPC is unable to process and respond to comments on the merits of a scheme. This ensures the impartiality of the IPC and protects the interests of all parties involved in the process. However, correspondence received by the IPC during this stage will be retained on file and made available to the Commissioner once the application is submitted.

During the pre-application stage the developer will be statutorily obliged to consult the local community and statutory bodies, including local authorities; the developer has yet to commence this statutory consultation for this proposal. In addition to providing your comments to the developer at this stage you may also wish to copy them to the relevant local authorities for this proposal.

Once the application is submitted (following the pre-application stage), the IPC will invite local authority consultees to submit an adequacy of consultation representation detailing whether the developer complied with their consultation duties in accordance with the PA 2008. We do this as part of the checks the IPC carries out to determine whether or not we can accept the application for examination. In deciding whether or not to accept an application the IPC must, amongst other matters, have regard to any adequacy of consultation representation received by it from a local authority consultee.

If the IPC accepts the application for examination, there will be the opportunity to register your views with the IPC and participate in the examination by completing a relevant representation form. Details about how and when to register will be publicised by the developer in local newspapers and via on site notices. Further project information, including how to register, will also be available on the IPC website at the relevant stage.

Further information about how to participate in the application process can be found in our advice notes. A link to the relevant section of our website is provided below. At the pre-application stage ?Advice Note 8.1: How the process works? and ?Advice Note 8.2: How to have your say on a major infrastructure proposal? may be of particular interest.
