§ Mr. Cohenasked the Secretary of State for the Environment what consultations took place between his Department and the private health firm, Third Independent, prior to the granting of planning permission for a site in Riding Lane South, Redbridge; on what dates such consultations took place; and what was their nature.
§ Mr. Patrick JenkinNone. The inspector who gave permission based his decision on written representations and a visit to the site. This appeal was one that was delegated to the inspector under the Town and Country Planning (determination of appeals by appointed persons) (prescribed classes) (amendment) Regulations 1977, and I played no part in the decision.
