THE closing date for the latest Hinkley Point consultation has been extended to May 31.

People are invited to give their comments on the extra information provided by EDF Energy on their Environmental Statement forming part of its planning application for Site Preparation Works.

The 11-day extension has been granted after requests for more time from the public to look at the changes.

The documents are available for inspection at the council’s headquarters in Williton or by clicking the related link below.
