West Oxfordshire Local Plan 2011

The West Oxfordshire Local Plan 2011 was adopted in June 2006 (see Notice of Adoption). All Local Plan policies and proposals are 'saved' beyond June 2009 other than Policies NE8, NE9, T5 and T7 and Proposals 2, 6, 13 and 14 - see decision letter, Direction and Schedule.

The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) was published in March 2012 and makes provisions for the continued use of the Local Plan for decision making in the district. Due weight may be given to the policies in the Local Plan according to their degree of consistency with the NPPF.

The Local Plan will therefore continue to form the basis for determining local planning applications until it is superseded by documents in the Local Development Framework.
