The Adur Local Plan was submitted to the Secretary of State for Examination on 20th October 2016. The Examination Hearing sessions took place from 31st January to 8th February 2017. The Inspector wrote to the Council to recommend Main Modifications. The Inspector's letter may be found at:

The Inspector invited comments on the post-submission Main Modifications to the Submission Adur Local Plan. (Main Modifications are those which the Inspector considers are necessary to make the plan sound/ legally compliant. Main Modifications are proposed without prejudice to the Inspector's final conclusion on the Local Plan which will take account of all representations submitted in response to this consultation).

The Main Modifications were consulted on from 15th June to midnight 26th July 2017.

At the same time, the Council also invited comments on the accompanying Addendum to the Sustainability Appraisal of the Adur Local Plan - Proposed Main Modifications (2017). A Schedule of Minor Modifications (which are minor changes to the Plan which do not affect soundness) was also made available
