am instructed on behalf of York Potash Limited in relation to its application for a DCO in relation to harbour facilities which is currently under Examination.
We have been asked, in the Ex Auth first questions, a question relating to Crown Consent. In that respect we are interested in the contents of paragraph 6.9 of the Secretary of State’s decision letter on Dogger Bank A&B. In that paragraph reference is made to the Secretary of State seeking explicit consent from the Crown Estate Commissioners and a letter of 23 June 2015. We cannot find any copy of that letter on the PINS website. It is clearly a document which should be available and I would be grateful if you could either steer me to where it is on the website or provide a copy.
Advice given
I have taken a look at paragraph 6.9 of the Secretary of state’s decision letter. The letter dated the 23 June to which it refers is a letter between the secretary of state and the crown commissioners and as such was not submitted to a deadline as part of the examination and therefore was not published on our website. However I have obtained a copy and I attach it now for your information
