Development Strategy and Policy Options Consultation Responses
Altogether there were 414 responses to the consultation (there was one duplicate response that was recorded under number 319 which has been removed).
Due to the volume of response we have published them in a number of PDF documents and one spreadsheet. The responses that came in via CitizenSpace are on the spreadsheet.
How to view the responses
There is an index of representations that details the representation number of each responder. The index can be used to search for a response and then using the relevant respondent number you can access the full response in the relevant PDF/spreadsheet.
Once you’ve opened the relevant PDF you can use the 'contents' or 'menu' icon (in the top left corner) and the 'document outline' icon to navigate to the response you wish to view.
