The Plan was due to expire on the 17th May 2009. However the Secretary of State has issued a direction allowing some policies to be extended or 'saved' until the policies being developed in the Minerals and Waste Development Framework (MWDF) supersede them.
The 'saved' policies will continue to form part of the statutory 'development plan' and provide the local policy framework for development control decisions until they are replaced by ones in the MWDF.
