Core Strategy Core Documents

Examination Library

For the Core Strategy Examination in Public we have produced a set of Core Documents known as the Examination Library. These are the main documents likely to be referred to during the Examination.

A hard copy of all the documents in the Examination Library are currently available to view at St Aldate's Chambers and will remain there until it is moved back to the Town Hall for the reconvened Examination.
