Waveney Local Plan (Adopted November 1996)


'Saved' Policies

Under the Planning & Compulsory Purchase Act 2004, policies in the Waveney Adopted Local Plan (1996) were saved for 3 years from 28th September 2004. The Secretary of State can make a direction to save policies for a further period beyond this date, but they were otherwise due to expire on 27th September 2007. The Council had to submit an assessment of Adopted Policies that it wished to save beyond 27th September 2007 to GO-EAST by 1st April. The report, assessing Adopted Plan policies against Government criteria, went to Full Council on 26th March 2007.

The Secretary of State's Direction (81Kb) (opens new window) lists the Adopted Local Plan policies that have been extended beyond 27th September 2007. Those not listed in the Direction expired on 27th September 2007, and cannot be used after this date. 

The list of saved policies was revised when the Core Strategy was adopted.

The Waveney Interim Local Plan is unaffected by these procedures, since it has not been fully adopted. It will continue to be used alongside the saved Adopted Local Plan policies for development control purposes until such time as they are superseded.
