inside shops despite greater risks of infection inside buildings than in the

<span>The Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations
2012 require a local planning authority to consult the public and stakeholders
before adopting a Supplementary Planning Document (SPD). Regulation 12(a)
requires a statement to be prepared setting out who has been consulted while
preparing the SPD; a summary of the main issues raised; and how these issues
have been addressed in the SPD.<span></span></span>
