The Draft Plan is currently in its Public Consultation phase which must run for a minimum of 10 weeks.  We will be accepting submissions/observations on the Draft Plan up to and including Friday 16th April 2021. 
A Chief Executive’s Report on all submissions received must then be prepared within 22 weeks of when the display period commenced.  Once completed, this report is issued to the elected members who then have a further 12 weeks to consider the report and its recommendations. 
At this point the elected members may make further amendments to the Plan or may adopt the Plan.
