Inquiry Attendance Information
Before deciding whether to take an active part in the inquiry, you need to think carefully about the points you wish to make.
All written submissions from application and appeal stage will be taken into account by the Inspector and re-stating the same points won’t add any additional weight to them.
If you just wish to observe the event, you should make that clear in your response.
If you wish to take an active part in the proceedings, please make clear in your response whether you wish only to appear at the inquiry and make a statement, or whether you would also wish to ask questions on particular topics.
If you want to take an active part but feel unable to for any reason, and/or the points you want to make are not covered in the evidence of others, consider whether someone else could raise them on your behalf.
Please note the Local Planning Authority may be either live streaming or recording the event.
