[Topic/Question] How can I get involved in having my say on a project? [Answer] 
The chance to influence, for example the design, layout, or location of a Nationally Significant Infrastructure Project takes place in the pre-application stage before the developer finalises their application and submits it to the Planning Inspectorate. To have your say in shaping a project contact the developer to see how to get involved, or look out for advertisements detailing when different consultation events are being held. Once an application has been accepted, look out for the developer's notification about the registration period. During this period you can register with the Planning Inspectorate to have your say during the examination process. See Advice Notes 8.1-8.5 for further information
