Radford Semele Neighbourhood Plan - Regulation 16 Submission

7.0 Next Steps

7.1 Following this Regulation 16 consultation, the RSNDP will be subject to an Independent Examination by a jointly appointed Examiner, to consider whether the RSNDP meets the basic conditions.

7.2 It is likely that the Examiner will recommend further modifications, before the Plan is subjected to a local Referendum of those eligible to vote in the neighbourhood area. A straight majority vote (50%, plus 1 of the turnout) will be required before the District Council "make" the RSNDP part of the development plan for the area. The RSNDP will then be used to help determine planning applications in Radford Semele alongside Local Plan policy and other material considerations such as national planning policy.

7.3 Plans only remain relevant when they are kept up to date. The Radford Semele Parish Council will monitor the policies and proposals in the plan on an annual basis.

7.4 Where the need for change is identified the Radford Semele Parish Council will work with Warwick District Council to produce updates and amendments where necessary.

7.5 Should a significant section(s) of the plan become out of date the Town Council may look to review the whole document by producing a new plan in accordance with the Neighbourhood Development Planning procedure.

7.6 In order to do this a monitoring framework will be established this will identify a key indicator for each objective that will be used at regular intervals to measure the effectiveness of the RSNDP.
