1. AEE Summary
1.4. Consultation
Consultation is a very important step in the creation of an AEE.7. Identification of the persons affected by the proposal, the consultation undertaken, if any, and any response to the views of any person consulted.
Where do I start?
Discuss the proposal with the council who may be able to help you list the parties to consult.
Prepare consultation material such as:
- a brief written description and plans of your idea/proposal
- a tentative assessment of environmental effects
- measures you would propose to reduce the extent or impact of those effects.
Consult with identified persons and groups:
- by letter (usually) in the first instance with an offer of follow-up contact to discuss the proposal in the following days
- by telephone (where possible) to confirm that they have received the information you sent, and to arrange further communication (preferably face-to-face) to determine any issues
- at an on-site meeting, where you explain your proposal.
The final step of this process is detailed below:
8. Where an effect needs to be controlled, a discussion of how it can be controlled and whether it needs to be monitored. Where appropriate, a description of how this will be done and by whom.
