Monitoring
The Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 requires local planning authorities to submit an Annual Monitoring Report to the Secretary of State by 31 December each year. The report should:
- set out progress on Local Development Document preparation against the timetable outlined in the authority’s Local Development Scheme;
- assess the extent to which current planning policies are being implemented;
- identify the significant effects of implementing policies in Local Plans / Local Development Documents and whether they are as intended;
- set out whether policies are to be amended or replaced.
The Annual Monitoring Report covers the period from 1 April one year to 31 March the following year. The following reports are available:
2008/2009 Annual Monitoring Report (334 KB)- 2007/2008 Annual Monitoring Report (343KB)
- 2006/2007 Annual Monitoring Report (240 KB)
- 2005/2006 Annual Monitoring Report (190 KB) produced jointly with the New Forest District Council.
These reports are supplemented by the Hampshire Minerals and Waste Development Framework Annual Monitoring Report which sets out minerals and waste data for the Hampshire area (including the whole of the New Forest National Park) over the same periods.
