Enquiry

From
Linda Rogers
Date advice given
18 August 2010
Enquiry type
Phone

Caller was concerned that she had been given little time to respond to a consultation request and that all four proposed substation locations for the onshore connection are unsuitable.

Advice given

We are unable to comment on the merits of a proposal at the pre-application stage. Any representations ought to be made to the promoter. Members of the public will be able to submit representations to the IPC if the application is accepted for examination.

Concerns about the adequacy of consultation ought to be made directly to the promoter and also to the Local Authority in the first instance. The IPC will also pass any such representations to the Commissioner with whom the decision whether to accept rests.
