Coryton Energy Park: Construction
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what engagement she has had with local communities on the construction of the Coryton Energy Park.
Answered by Matthew Pennycook
Due to the role of MHCLG Ministers in the planning system it would not be appropriate for me to comment on specific cases. For the same reason, Ministers do not actively engage communities in relation to specific development proposals.
Local planning authorities are required to publicise applications for a minimum of 21 days, prior to determining planning applications, and must take any material matters raised into consideration when making a decision.
