The Planning Inspectorate provides further information about the examination process in their Procedure Guide for Local Plan Examinations.
Background
The SADPD includes site-specific planning policies for 13 sites proposed for allocation in Lambeth, distributed across the borough.
Once adopted, the Site Allocations Development Plan Document (SADPD) will form part of the statutory development plan for Lambeth.
Alongside the London Plan 2021, the Lambeth Local Plan 2021 (PDF 16.4MB) and the Southbank and Waterloo Neighbourhood Plan (PDF 5MB) and associated planning guidance, the SADPD will help deliver new homes and workspaces, secure benefits for communities and improve the quality of places and the environment in Lambeth.
There is a legal process for the preparation of the SADPD which includes Examination by an independent Planning Inspector.
This Examination is against legal compliance and nationally set tests of ‘soundness’. Only if the Inspector is satisfied with the SADPD, will the council be able to adopt it.
The timetable for the preparation of the SADPD can be found in the latest version of the Local Development Scheme (LDS).
