You refer to the South East marine plan “The South East Marine Plan which covers an area from Landguard Point in Felixstowe to Samphire Hoe near Dover was published for public consultation in January 2020 and is therefore also a material consideration”. The South East Marine Plan was adopted this year and is no longer material for consideration but has the full weight of an adopted plan.
The East Inshore and East Offshore Marine Plans were adopted in 2014, and the South Inshore and Offshore Marine Plan was adopted in 2018, which cover the adjacent areas. Please ensure correct reference to the South East, South, and East marine plan areas where included.
