Thank you very much for your response to my previous questions.

Would it be possible for you to let me know how many notifications (i.e. where a potential applicant has informed PINS that they intend to make an application - including those that did go on to make an application) have been made since 1 June 2013?

Would it be possible for someone to get back to me by Wednesday the 11th as the figure is needed for a presentation that my colleague is giving?

Advice given

Please be advised that as of the 1 June 2013, PINS received 17 notifications for Nationally Significant Infrastructure Projects (NSIP). I have attached FYI a list of these projects to which I refer.

Furthermore, it may be of interest for you (although it was not requested) to know that from 1st April 2013 to 31st May 2014, in total PINS has received 20 notifications for potential NSIPs to be submitted to the National Infrastructure Directorate (NID). It is worth noting, that of these 20 NSIP currently on our register of projects, 2 have already been accepted for examination. The additional NSIPs, which are not included in the attached document are:

  1. Ferrybridge Multifuel 2 (FM2) Power Station (EN010061), date of notification May 2013.
  2. Progress Power Station (EN010060), date of notification May 2013 and subsequently submitted for Acceptance on 31 March 2014. Decision to accept the application was issued on 25 April 2014.
  3. Hirwaun Gas Fired Power Station (EN010059), date of notification May 2013 and subsequently submitted for Acceptance on 21 March 2014. Decision to accept the application was issued on 15 April 2014.

I trust you find this information satisfactory and if you require any further information please do not hesitate to contact us.
