Local Plan Review (Regulation 18[1])

consultation. Consultation and pre-consultation arrangements were also agreed,
so that public consultation on the plan would be undertaken between 1 and 22

minor amendments and factual alterations to the consultation document.

been raised by a cross-section of Members during the discussion on the report.

engagement with Parish Councils, infrastructure providers and statutory bodies,

9 November Committee meeting will be incorporated into the Local Plan Review
prior to the commencement of consultation.
