To ask the Scottish Executive what opportunities were provided during the (a) planning, (b) public consultation and (c) public local inquiry process for hearing evidence relating to carbon impact and impact on greenhouse gas emissions of the proposed Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route.
Answer
Various consultations have taken place in relation to the Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route during which consultees and the public were provided the opportunity to comment on various issues including carbon impact and impact on greenhouse gas emissions.
Throughout the scheme development process consultation took place with a wide range of statutory and non-statutory bodies, seeking comment on various issues, including inter-alia, carbon impact and impact on greenhouse gas emissions.
During the public consultation held in spring 2005 the public were invited to make comment on any issues, including inter-alia, carbon impact and impact on greenhouse gas emissions.
The publication of draft orders in December 2006 and September 2007 marked the start of formal statutory consultation periods in respect of the proposed Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route. An Environmental Statement was published at the same time as the draft orders. The public had the opportunity to comment on the published scheme and also on the information contained in the Environmental Statement which included details on air quality.
In terms of the public local inquiry, there was specific consideration of carbon impact and impact on greenhouse gas emissions relating to the proposed Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route.
