Port of London Authority Harbour Revision Order

The Port of London Authority applied for a Harbour Revision Order in 2021. During consultation a number of objections were raised which resulted in revised versions of key application documents, the Amended Port of London Authority Harbour Revision Order (16 January 2024) and the Amended Statement in Support (16 January 2024) as can be seen below. There remain a number of objections that have not been withdrawn and the MMO decided on 19 August 2024 to cause a public inquiry to be held. The inquiry chair, Christopher Jacobs was appointed on 11 September 2024. The public inquiry commenced on 25 February 2025, concluding on 14 March 2025. A site visit took place on 18 and 19 March 2025, comprising a view by boat of the tidal River Thames from London Gateway to Teddington Lock. All updates and information relating to the inquiry have been published by the inquiry programme officer, Helen Wilson, on her web page, details of which can be found at the bottom of the page. Anyone seeking further information should contact the MMO directly via email: harbourorders@marinemanagement.org.uk or by post: Harbour Orders Team, Marine Management Organisation, Tyneside House, Skinnerburn Road, Newcastle upon Tyne NE4 7AR.
