"Councils in Barnet, Camden, Enfield, Hackney, Haringey, Islington and Waltham Forest have been developing the North London Waste Plan. When adopted, the Plan will form part of each council’s Local Development Framework.
"I am writing to let you know that, following the consultation on the preferred options for the Plan in October 2009, the seven boroughs have published the proposed submission version of the Plan. The consultation period on the document runs from 11th May to 22nd June 2011.
"The boroughs have considered the all the comments from the previous consultation stages, and have used them in preparing the latest version of the document. The North London Waste Plan identifies a range of suitable sites for the management of all north London’s waste up to 2027, and sets out policies and guidelines for determining planning applications for waste developments.
How to view the plan
"The plan is available to view from 11 May at www.nlwp.net, in the councils’ planning offices and at any one of the councils’ libraries. At the same locations, you will also be able to see related reports on previous consultation, habitats, equalities and sustainability and the technical evidence behind the plan.
How to comment on the plan

What happens next?
"When the consultation closes on 22nd June, the boroughs will collate all the responses received, and submit them, together with the submission documents, to an independent Planning Inspector.
"This submission is programmed for October, and will mark the beginning of the examination of the Plan. A public hearing is expected in early 2012. At the end of the examination, the Inspector writes a report for the boroughs.
"The boroughs will keep you informed at these various stages about the progress of the Plan."
