Communications
History
A number of public roadshows have been held by the Partnership across the region over the past few years and more recently by MVV. As the project has developed and further information has become available, more events have been set up to ensure local residents are kept up-to-date. These consultations will continue throughout the planning and permitting process, and if the scheme is approved, the Incinerator Liaison Committee will become an important part of continuing communication.
The partnership has also communicated with a variety of stakeholders across the local authorities and public, private and statutory organisations.
Further information on communication activities can be found on page 156 of the Final Business Case.
