Reg 17 Independent Examination (Suspended - 12 May 2023)
Mid Suffolk District Council appointed Janet Cheesley BA (Hons) DipTP MRTPI to carry out an independent examination of the Wetheringsett cum Brockford NDP.
‘Following a high-level review which identified a fatal flaw relating to a housing site identified in policy WCB1, and in response to her ‘open letter’ dated 12 April 2023, the Examiner has accepted a request from Wetheringsett cum Brockford Parish Council that they be allowed to withdraw their submitted NDP and for this examination to be suspended while they undertake further consultation with the local community as appropriate and for other procedural matters to be addressed.
When we have more news to report on the proposed changes being made to this NDP will we update this page accordingly’
