Previous stages
We have consulted many local people and organisations about all the issues and options (opens Document Library) that affect the National Park such as housing, businesses and traffic. We have also gathered extensive research and evidence.
Pre-submission consultation
The Lake District National Park Authority Core Strategy for pre-submission, ‘Sustaining the Lake District’ (opens Document Library) was prepared, prior to its submission to the Secretary of State for independent examination in 2010. Comments were invited over a six week period from 21 September - 30 October 2009
The Representations Statement summarises the main issues raised. All representations have been sent to the Secretary of State for consideration during the examination process.
