Herefordshire Council has Approved the Walford NDP to Progress to Independent Examination

Herefordshire Council (HC) has confirmed that Walford NDP has been progressed to the examination stage following the conclusion of the Reg16 consultation. HC has applied to NPIERS for three candidate examiners for WPC selection – this process can take a couple of weeks before we are given any names.

Once they have been given three potential candidates, HC will ask Walford Parish Council to select their preference and then they will make the arrangements to appoint.

As part of the examination, Walford PC have the ability to make comments to the examiner about any of the representations received. These comments will form part of the examination and appear on the website but there is no requirement to respond directly to the people making the representations.

Please find the link to the representations which were received during the consultation period. (https://www.herefordshire.gov.uk/directory-record/3112/walford-neighbourhood-development-plan).

There are 2 documents named “Representations received during submission consultation” and “Progression to examination document“.

WPC may consider the documents and may wish to make comments to the examiner once they have been appointed.

The WPC NDP Steering Committee will be meeting online on 18th October 2022 to review the materials and project plans. Please see “Upcoming Events” for details and agenda.
