There is sadly nothing sustainable, vibrant or inclusive in the RLDP. It is a confusing dystopian vision. The RLDP is an immensely clumsy, badly-designed, overlong and ill-organized entity. Vale Planning in fact have a public duty of care for local residents, namely, to minimally help and facilitate public understandings of the issues. Sadly they entirely failed in this basic responsibility. Intentionally or not Vale Planning quite literally dumped thousands of pages of overly technical documents on the website with little or no regard, guidance or clear pathways for ordinary readers, which is an unforgivable administrative lapse. This makes the whole consultation process largely inaccessible to ordinary folk and those who have limited digital skills or limited time due to responsibilities. In point, for those with limited digital skills, the online RLDP offends against basic principles of natural justice. It is intrinsically discriminatory against those who found it impossible to navigate.
