Reporters Monthly Update for June 2011
"Following the receipt of the plan the initial administrative procedures have now been concluded. These included checking all the documentation is present and complies with the necessary legislative requirements. Part of this is an examination of the council's statement on its legal responsibilities regarding the consultation procedures followed during the preparation of the plan. After some clarification, this was all found to be in order.
The plan has now been passed formally to the reporters for the examination properly and an initial division made of the issues each will consider. A work programme has been prepared with the aim of delivering their report to the council by the end of November. Their next step is a thorough study of the plan to ensure they have a clear understanding of it, before looking at each issue in detail. The following stage will be an examination of the issues to assess whether they have enough information on each one, and if not the procedures that will be followed to acquire this. Options include further written submissions, or a hearing or inquiry session. Relevant objectors will be informed individually if they are required to take part in any further procedure."
