Dear Mr Murrell,

Thank you for you speedy response.

Please find below some supplementary questions pursuant to the original Freedom of Information request:

When is it envisaged that the Parish Plan will be finalised and adopted?

What preparations have been undertaken in relation to preparing for and complying with the planning rules under the National Planning Policy Framework of 2012, the Localism Act of 2011 and associated relevant Planning Acts?

John Murrell,

We intend to comply with all planning rules. We have no plans to take on
additional responsibilities as we are a very small rural parish.John
