We strongly advise people/groups/organisations/etc who are thinking of doing this to contact us beforehand, as we prefer people to make their own individual submissions via our submissions form.

Every three years we produce a Long-term Plan (LTP), which sets out the services and projects we will deliver for the next decade and how we will pay for them.

During the years in between, we must produce an Annual Plan (AP). The AP sets out the planned projects and services for the upcoming financial year - in this case, 1 July 2025 to 30 June 2026.

Since we created the LTP in 2024 to run until 2034, we would usually only be considering an AP this year. However, since we have a significant issue we are legally required to consult on - the possible sale of our CentrePort shareholding - we must consult on amending our current LTP.
