2. Glossary

The Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) Regulations 2012 set out the process for preparing a Local Plan. Below are the basic steps needed to put in place an up-to-date Local Plan.

  • Initial Evidence Gathering and Consultation: Council to formulate initial aims and objectives for Local Plan. Begin evidence gathering process, including addressing requirements for Strategic Environmental Assessment reports. Hold initial discussions and consultation with local communities and businesses, Duty to Cooperate partners, and other relevant bodies or organisations (no legal format for this).

  • Publication: Council formally publishes the Local Plan for consultation. Consultation must be for a minimum of 6 weeks. The council will need to be able to show how it has taken account of the views (representations) given through the consultation, and may make changes to the Local Plan before proceeding to the next stage.

  • Submission: The council submits the Local Plan, alongside the consultation representations and other required documents, to the Planning Inspectorate. The Inspectorate then arrange for the Local Plan to be scrutinised through an Examination in Public. During the Examination, the Inspector will be testing the Local Plan for soundness; legal procedural compliance and whether the Council has met the duty to co-operate. The Inspector will consider any representations made on the plan. The National Planning Policy Framework contains further information on the Government’s policy for sound Local Plans.

  • Found Sound: The Inspector will write a report, setting out whether he or she is satisfied that the Local Plan is sound; meets the legal procedural requirements and the duty to co-operate. The report may recommend main modifications (changes) to the submitted plan, where requested by the Council, to make the Local Plan sound and compliant with the legal procedural requirements. Note: the Inspector cannot make main modifications in relation to the duty to co-operate.

  • Adoption: After the council has received the Inspector’s report, it must formally adopt the Local Plan before it can become part of the Development Plan for the local area. Read the full Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) Regulations 2012)
