Consultation Review Process
Your consultation request will be reviewed within our Consultation Advisory Group. This group meets monthly to discuss and evaluate consultations.
Depending on the nature of your consultation, you may be invited to join the group for a discussion. You may also receive feedback from the group to help develop your proposal.
You can find out more about our consultation process in the consultation process document (DOC, 34KB) and consultation guidance (DOC, 67KB).
If you have any questions about statutory and non-statutory consultations, please email consultations@essex.gov.uk.
