Enquiry regarding the production of Local Impact Reports
Advice given
Having checked our records, I can confirm that our letter requesting Local Impact Reports was sent to ?Head of Planning, Breckland District Council ? ? on 6 June 2014. The letter, with the request on the second page, is at: http://infrastructure.planningportal.gov.uk/wp-content/ipc/uploads/projects/TR010015/2.%20Post-Submission/Procedural%20Decisions/Procedural%20decisions%20made%20following%20the%20Preliminary%20Meeting.pdf. Would you like further correspondence directed to you or another named individual?
If your authority is reconsidering its decision regarding the production of a Local Impact Report, you may find the following advice note useful: http://infrastructure.planningportal.gov.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Advice-note-1v2.pdf.
Notably, Local Impact Reports have a special status in our examination because they are produced by local planning authorities. However, the internal processes regarding contributions and approval are entirely at the discretion of the submitting authority. The contributions of Parish Councils are valued by the Examining Authority, and relevant parishes have had, and continue to have, the opportunity to participate in our examination. Several have submitted written representations, which can be viewed at: http://infrastructure.planningportal.gov.uk/projects/eastern/norwich-northern-distributor-road-ndr/?ipcsection=docs&stage=4&filter=Written+Representations.
