[Topic/Question] What is a Local Impact Report? How can I contribute to this? [Answer] 
Once the examination of an application has begun, the Planning Inspectorate invites the local authority (or authorities) concerned to provide it with a Local Impact Report (LIR) on the likely effects of the development on the local area. Interested Parties are notified of the time frame for commenting on the Local Impact Report in the examination timetable that is set out in the rule 8 (The Infrastructure Planning (Examination Procedure) Rules 2010) letter.
