This is an Environmental Information Regulations (EIR) request regarding new intensive poultry farms.
• How many planning applications have been filed with your council between 01/01/23 and the day this request is processed with regard to a new intensive poultry farm (if you need a specific capacity, I define "intensive" in the same way as the Environment Agency, that is, >40,000 birds)?
• How many of these applications have you approved to date?
• For each approved application, please provide a brief summary of the new intensive poultry farm, including (where possible) the farm's capacity, acreage, ownership details, address and Eastings and Northings.
For all approved farms, I would also like to request any planning application documents (including any environmental assessments submitted to the Council) and any approval documents sent from the Council to the applicants.
