Last chance to register your views before 29th October 2023

Have your say on Gatwick Airport’s application to government for a second runway – before the deadline of Sunday 29^th October.

A summary of the plans is set out in the Non Technical Summary on the Planning Inspectorate's website.

The application is following the Development Consent Order process as set out in the Planning Act 2008. This means it is being assessed by the government’s Planning Inspectorate (PINS) who will then advise the Secretary of State for Transport on whether to grant or refuse the application, including associated conditions. PINS have six months to carry out its examination once the process starts, expected to be in the next month or so.  Anyone can register as an Interested Party for the DCO examination
