The landscape of Suffolk is changing, marked by an influx of Nationally Significant Infrastructure Projects (NSIPs). With many more on the horizon, there is an impact on local councils and parish meetings.
As stewards of our communities, local councils and parish meetings are entrusted with the vital task of ensuring that voices of residents and business are not only heard but also effectively represented. The best way to achieve this is to engage with both non-statutory and statutory stages of the NSIP process. For more NSIP-relared advice and news, look at the content below.
