Documents submitted for consideration in respect of planning applications (for example: documents submitted as part of an application and representations relating to an application) are made available for inspection by the public, and can be viewed on the Council's website, including personal information such as names and addresses which form part of the Statutory Register. If you do not wish your email details or telephone number to be viewed please enclose on a seperate piece of paper marked 'sensitive'. Signatures can be redacted on request.

Avoid any details that could compromise your own security such as holiday dates or times when you will not be on the premises. On electronic communications do not show your email address or phone number if you do not want these to be viewed. Please clearly specify in your documentation any personal information that you do not want placed on the web site. We will write to you should we require further information.
