Dear Sir/Madam,

I have a question regarding at what point the relevant Local Authority recieves a copy of the DCO application material. I presume it is sent at the point of successful registration (post the 28 day registration period) as is currently the case with applications going through the Town and Country Planning Act route, rather than at the point the applicant submits documentation to the IPC.

I would be grateful if you could provide confirmation regarding the above question.

Kind regards,

Alex Bullock

Dear Mr Bullock,

Thank you for your email of 25 August 2010, asking at what stage in the process the Local Authority receives a copy of Development Consent Order application material.

In accordance with section 56 of the Planning Act 2008, applicants are required to make the full application and all documents and information accompanying the application available to each person notified of the accepted application and at least one inspection copy should be made available in the vicinity of the proposed development.

There is no specific stage at which the applicant is required to send a copy of the application documents to the Local Authority however, we strongly advise applicants to send a copy of their draft documents (most importantly their draft development consent order) to the Local Authority at the pre application stage as well as the submission documents when submitting them to the Commission for acceptance.

The Development Consent Order regime is intended to be collaborative and front-loaded, and it is anticipated that the Local Authority and other stakeholders will have been involved in creating the documents from an early stage. There are obligations upon the applicant to consult with the Local Authority and others, and the Commission will not accept applications for examination where the applicant has been unable to demonstrate that their proposals have been subject to and informed by meaningful consultation.

Further information can be found in Advice Note 6: Preparation and Submission of Application Documents, which can be found on our website at http://infrastructure.independent.gov.uk

If you have any further queries please do not hesitate to contact me.

Yours sincerely
