What is the next stage of the Rookery South Application and what stage is the Brig y Cwm project at?

Advice given

Further to our conversation earlier here is an update on the projects you were interested in.

Brig y Cwm, Merthyr Tydfil - the Commissioners designated to the project are currently deciding whether or not to accept the application to go forward to the examination stage. The deadline for this decision is the 28th January 2011. Once the decision has been made, the applicant must give notice to the LA, landowners/tenants any other persons as may be prescribed (Statutory Consultees under Schedule 1 of the APFP regs and the Community). Once the notice has been issued, there will be 28 days for a person to submit a representation to the IPC. As the HPA is considered an interested party, you will be consulted and kept up to date on all aspects of the application automatically. A date will be set for the preliminary hearing after all the representations have been received.

Rookery South, Bedfordshire - We will shortly be issuing a notification (Rule 8 letter) to interested parties which sets the timetable for examination including deadlines for receipt of detailed written representations, the local impact report and for comments on others’ representations. The notification will also be published on our website.
