Query regarding who to contact regarding perceived issues with the developer's consultation

Cyngor a roddwyd

At the pre-application stage developers have a statutory duty to consult the public and prescribed consultees about their proposals under the Planning Act 2008 (as amended). This offers an important opportunity to provide feedback and potentially influence a proposal before its submission to The Planning Inspectorate. The developer is responsible for conducting the pre-application consultation and they must have regard to any feedback they receive during this period when preparing their application.

If you consider that the pre-application consultation being undertaken is not adequate then you should first contact the developer to give them an opportunity to respond and if necessary remedy any concerns raised about the way in which the consultation is being conducted.

You can also inform your local authority about your views on the developer?s pre-application consultation. The local authority where the development is situated and the neighbouring local authorities will have the chance to submit an Adequacy of Consultation Representation once an application has been submitted to The Planning Inspectorate.

If the Planning Inspectorate accepts the application for examination, there will then be an opportunity to register your views by completing a relevant representation form. Making a relevant representation on the prescribed form allows an individual or organisation to participate in the examination. Details about how and when to register will be publicised by the developer and we will also provide details about how to register and other project information on our website.

Further information on how to participate in the application process can be found in our advice notes. 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. A link to the relevant section of our website is provided below.
