Statement of Community Involvement (SCI)

Consultation on the latest 2023 Draft Statement of Community Involvement (SCI)

The Council has prepared a draft Statement of Community Involvement (SCI) for public consultation. This document sets out the consultation arrangements for planning policy documents such as the draft Gosport Borough Local Plan 2038, Supplementary Planning Documents and planning applications so that local residents, businesses and other key stakeholders have the opportunity to fully participate in the planning process.

The current SCI was adopted in March 2019  There is now a requirement for local authorities to review their SCI every 5 years and therefore the current SCI March 2019 is due for review.
