April 2016

Publication of Revised Non-Technical Summary

During the initial consultation period on the statutory procedures which ended on 4th April 2016, the Department has become aware that the text of the Non-Technical Summary (which forms part of the Environmental Statement) did not fully reflect the content of the main body of the Environmental Statement.

On Tuesday 18th April 2016 TransportNI published the Non-Technical Summary – Revision A of the Environmental Statement.  The relevant advertisement can be viewed under ‘Documents’ at the bottom of the page. This included the Environmental Statement (ES) 2016 containing the Non-Technical Summary – Revision A.

While the content of the main body of the Environmental Statement, which comprises around 6,000 pages is unchanged, to ensure anyone who may only have read the shorter Non-Technical Summary is appropriately informed, it has been decided to re-consult on the Environmental Statement which includes the Non-Technical Summary – Revision A. This will allow for any further representations to be made but it should be noted that all those representations made during the initial consultation period remain valid and logged with the Department.

A hard copy of the Non-Technical Summary – Revision A and the Environmental Statement has been placed on display at the following locations and may be inspected at all reasonable hours between 18th April 2016 and 2nd June 2016;
