Submission documents

Ufford Parish Council submitted their Neighbourhood Plan to East Suffolk Council ahead of it being submitted for independent examination. East Suffolk Council publicised the plan and invited representations between 20 November 2024 and 15 January 2025.

View the submission documents in our consultation portal.

The Habitats Regulations Assessment (HRA) Screening Statement and Appropriate Assessment on the Draft Ufford Neighbourhood Plan (April 2024) was initially omitted from the list of submission documents provided on the consultation portal on 20th November 2024 due to error. This document was added on 21st November 2024, and all consultees were notified via email.

It was not necessary to further extend the consultation as the omittance was for only one day, and the consultation was already set over an extended period of 8 weeks (to accommodate the festive period), when statutory requirements are for 6 weeks.
