Caller was advised that the purpose of providing comment on the SoCC is to ensure that consultation is undertaken effectively with regard to the local knowledge held by the Local Authority, and that the consultation strategy and how the developer will consult on the PEI will be integral to providing this comment. The enquirer was referred to IPC Guidance Note 1, CLG Guidance for Local Authorities and CLG Guidance for Pre-application Consultation.

The caller was informed that it is for the applicant to decide how they can refer to the PEI in the consultation, but that it must be made explicit that the document referred is the PEI and serves its purpose.
