Decision Statement - ARAS NDP

Examiner's Final Report - 31 August 2017

The Appleton Roebuck and Acaster Selby Neighbourhood Development Plan 2017-2027 has been examined by the Independent Examiner, Mr Robert Yuille, who recommended that, subject to proposed modifications, the neighbourhood plan should proceed to referendum. A copy of the Examiner's Report is available to view below.

Examiner's 'Fact Check' Report - 17 August 2017

Prior to the Examiner issuing the Final Report on the Appleton Roebuck and Acaster Selby Neighbourhood Development Plan the Examiner issued a 'fact check' version. The purpose of the pre-issue stage 'fact check' Report is to identify any issues of fact that are incorrect, such as place names or figures that are referenced. Whilst there is no legal or policy provision for a 'fact check' report stage, it has become commonplace for examiners to provide a pre-issue version of the report to the Council and the qualifying body (Appleton Roebuck and Acaster Selby Parish Council), so that purely factual errors can be picked up.

The Council provided a response to the 'fact check' Report incorporating comments from the qualifying body. A copy of the Examiner's 'Fact Check' Report and the Council's response is available to veiw below.

Submission for examination

Copies of the Submission Documents and comments received to the Submission Draft consultation undertaken between 21 December 2016 and 15 February 2017 were forwarded to an independent examiner, Mr Robert Yuille, assessed the neighbourhood plan to ensure it meets the right basic standards. The independent examiner is appointed by Selby District Council in agreement with Appleton Roebuck and Acaster Selby Parish Council (the qualifying body). It will be for the independent examiner to recommend whether or not the neighbourhood plan as submitted (or with modifications) is progressed to referendum.

In line with the requirements set out in the Examiner's letter dated 4 May 2017 (below), the Council consulted on an updated Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) Screening Report. Consultation was undertaken for a six week period between 19 May 2017 and 30 June 2017. The SEA Screening Report and responses are set out below:
