Purpose

Planning Regulations require
planning authorities to undertaken assessments of adopted Local
Plans every five years, to assess if they remain relevant and
effective. 
The West Sussex Joint Minerals Local Plan (JMLP) was adopted in
July 2018, therefore a five-year assessment has been
undertaken.
 
The review concluded that the
JMLP remains relevant and effective and that a formal review
(in whole or in
part) is not required.
 
The Cabinet Member for
Environment and Climate Change will be asked to advise the County
Council on the outcome of the five-year assessment of the Joint
Minerals Local Plan and recommend that a review is not
undertaken.
