Having satisfied ourselves that the council’s consultation and engagement exercises conformed with their participation statement, our examination of the plan commenced on 7 January 2014. We have completed the examination, and now submit our report, enclosing one bound copy. In our examination we considered all 107 issues arising from unresolved representations which were identified by the council. In each case we have taken account of the summaries of the representations and the responses, as prepared by the council, and the original representations, and we have set out our conclusions and recommendations in relation to each issue in our report. The examination process also included a comprehensive series of unaccompanied site inspections and, for some issues we requested additional information from the authority and other parties. We also found it necessary to arrange a hearing session on housing land, which was held at Low Parks Museum, Hamilton on 28 May 2014. On 23 June 2014 Scottish Ministers published National Planning Framework (NPF) 3 and updated Scottish Planning Policy (SPP). Where necessary, we invited parties to comment on the implications, if any, of these publications for the matters under consideration in the examination.
