Before deciding whether to take an active part in the hearing, 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 hearing is right for you in whatever capacity, you can participate in several ways:

To take part using video, participants will need to have access to Microsoft Teams (via an app or web browser). Alternatively, you can take part by telephone. Calls would be to an 020 number which will incur charges.

All registered participants will receive individual joining instructions providing details of any requirements, guidance and support, whether joining by Teams or telephone. The event may be recorded by the Planning Inspectorate for training and quality assurance purposes.
