• Claire Miller (26 September 2024)

  As per some research we did, summarised in this blog on an analysis of local plans and local area requirements, we're confident that this consideration acts as an INPUT to the process of creating a local plan.

• Kieran Wint (03 September 2024)

  As per the Special Protection Areas data published by Natural England on data.gov.uk, the update frequency is 'not planned', so marked as ad hoc.
