Purpose

West Oxfordshire, in common with all English authorities, has a statutory duty to prepare and update a contaminated land inspection strategy, that sets out how it will identify and manage contaminated land within the District. Government expects us to update the strategy every 5 years or so. Our existing strategy, originally produced in 2001, last updated in 2019 is due an update. I seek approval to publish the strategy
