Dear Sirs,

I wish to formally register my interest in this application and to make submissions to the inspectorate. I have found the website relatively impenetrable and wish to ask if there is a specific format to formally register my interest and to enable receipt of updates, notices of key dates and in order to attend public meetings.

Kind Regards,

Roland Gilmore

Dear Mr Gilmore

Thank you for your email regarding the Thames Tideway Tunnel project.

It is currently too early for you register to become an Interested Party for this project. The application has only just been submitted to us and we are currently checking it to make sure it is complete and capable of being examined. This check will take no longer tha 28 days from the date of submission.

If the Planning Inspectorate accepts the application for examination Thames Water, as the applicant, will publish a notice inviting members of the public such as yourself to become an Interested Party (See advice note 8.3 below). As an Interested Party, you will be able to present your views to the Examination Authority and attend any meetings or hearings regarding the project. You will also be sent all relevant information about the project for the lifetime of the examination.

The Planning Inspectorate has also published the following leaflets about the process which may be of help to you. They can be accessed from this page:
