It would be useful if the section on Neighbourhood Plans could detail the requirements of the consultation stages, including a commitment to consult consultation bodies, such as Southern Water.

Reference is made to specific consultation bodies on page 6, generically. It would be helpful if the document also listed each of these bodies including Southern Water.

Tables A and B do not make it clear at which stages Southern Water, and other specific consultation bodies, will be consulted and how. It would also be helpful if an indication of the length of the consultation periods could be given for all the various stages of the Local Plan and Supplementary Planning Documents.

We welcome the indication on page 13 that 'Consultation statements' will be produced, as it helps us to understand the Council's position and gives us the opportunity to clarify any misunderstandings before a document reaches the submission stage. However, we look for a commitment to let those who responded to a consultation know when the document will be available on the Council's web site.

It is important that Southern Water is consulted on applications that may impact on the provision of water and wastewater services to existing customers, for example, if the proposed development affects access to Southern Water's operational assets, including underground mains and sewers. Accordingly, it is suggested that this is included in the Development Management section.
