Issues & Options Consultation, Newham Local Plan Review - LBN Planning Policy

This work deserves an award for its successful and meaningful engagement.

The various innovative methods used significantly increased the quantity and range of stakeholders who responded: creating a growing pool of interested and empowered stakeholders, and providing invaluable insights to shape the Plan. The consultation outreach – 5000 comments from almost 400 representors, 74% of which were residents – is a significant step-change from the consultation on the adopted Plan, which received 46 comments, of which four were from residents. As a result, this consultation was chosen to inform the Council’s Resident Engagement Framework, influencing engagement and co-production activity across the Council.
