The letters state:
The Secretary of State is minded to designate each local planning authority, but recognises that recent data has shown improvement.
Before formal designation, the local planning authority will be given the opportunity to demonstrate improved performance by June 2023.
If during this period, performance falls below the required threshold, the Secretary of State will use his powers to designate the local planning authority later this year.
