Dear Miss Evans,

Town and Country Planning Act 1990

Public Inquiry into the Proposed QEB and Wakeford Copse Developments and Associated Applications

Appeal References APP/N1730/A/05/ 186859, 186860, 186861and 186862.

We confirm that our letter dated 29^th September comprises our statement under Rule 6 of the Town & Country Planning Act 1990 with the following additional matters.

We will also show that the proposed car park located off the proposed roundabout on the B3013 at the bottom of Beacon Hill may introduce new people to parts of the SPA which have previously been less accessible. These impacts have not been assessed in the Appropriate Assessment carried out on behalf of Hart Council and this is an important issue in assessing the impact of the proposed development on the SPA.

We intend to rely on the following documents at the Inquiry. The Inquiry is still some time away and there will be further publications and research which will be relevant to this appeal. We reserve the right to use this information and will produce a list of any additional documents we intend to rely on in due course, in advance of the Inquiry date.
