Neighbourhood Plan – Statement of Community Involvement is approved.

Swindon Borough Council has released an update on the Neighbourhood Plan:

“It’s important that people and groups potentially affected by planning policies and proposals have the opportunity to be involved in decision-making and understand when and what the opportunities are.

That’s why we held a six-week consultation earlier this year (29 January to 11 March 2024) to get views on a new draft Statement of Community Involvement, which sets out how and when the Council will carry out consultation and engage local residents, community groups and stakeholders in carrying out its planning duties.

The final Statement of Community Involvement was approved at the 25^th July 2024 Full Council meeting.”

We’ve included this statement in the updates page of our NHP section, and included a screenshot of the page discussing the Neighbourhood Planning process.
