Representation Summary:

Paragraph 8.73/CS6 Under the Duty to Co-operate, involvement with LPA's significantly affected by the impacts of plans is crucial to resolve complex strategic planning issues. Involvement should be from the beginning of the process and be continuous to be effective. BDC/MSDC are concerned whether the pace of plan preparation will allow effective involvement - it has resulted in existing discussion forums being poorly used to engage on strategic issues. As a result while remaining keen to collaborate with the Borough on dealing with strategic issues BDC/MSDC reserves its position on the soundness of Core Strategy.
