Core Strategy - Inspector's Report (Reg 35)
The Core Strategy sets out the vision and strategic spatial
objectives for the spatial development of the District. The
Core Strategy is a Development Plan Document and as such is part of
the Development Plan for the District and is one of the documents
that makes up Mid Suffolk's Local Development Framework
(LDF).
Mid Suffolk's Core Strategy was submitted to Government in
order for it to be 'Examined'. The Secretary of
State appointed Mr Robert Yuille MSc DipTP MRTPI of the
Planning Inspectorate to conduct the Examination, which opened
on Thursday 29th May 2008 and ended on Wednesday 11th June
2008.
In accordance with guidance from the Government Office for the East
of England (Go-East) and the Planning Inspectorate (PINS) an LDF
document, in this case the Core Strategy, is currently a material
consideration and the strength of that consideration increases the
closer it gets to adoption. Local Authorities,
however, must consider Planning Applications in line with the
adopted documentation at the time of the decision.
A DPD becomes effective for planning decisions from the
date of issue of the Inspector's Report
as it is a legally binding document. Mid Suffolk expects to receive
the Inspector’s Report in August 2008 (contact 01449 724844 for
latest information). The Inspector's report will be uploaded
onto this web page immediately and the recommendations will then be
incorporated into the Core Strategy. |
