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 feel that taking part in the Inquiry is right for you in

whatever capacity, you can participate in a number of ways:

To take part using video, participants will need to have access

to Microsoft Teams (via an app or web browser). This link gives

further information on how to use this,

en-us/teams. Alternatively you can take part by telephone.

Calls would be to an 020 number which will incur charges.

If you just wish to observe the event, you should make that clear

in your response to the Case Officer.

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

Registered participants in whatever capacity will receive individual joining instructions, providing details of any requirements, guidance and support, whether joining by Teams or telephone. You should note that the event will be recorded by the Planning Inspectorate for training and quality assurance purposes.
