Statement of Community Involvement (SCI)

Closed 29 Aug 2025

Opened 4 Jul 2025

Overview

The Statement of Community Involvement (SCI) sets out how the Council will involve local communities, businesses and other stakeholders in the preparation and review of planning policy and the consideration of planning applications. It explains who will be consulted, when and how.

Slough's first SCI was adopted in 2006. The SCI needs updating to meet the latest regulations, changes in national planning policy and guidance. The revised SCI, once adopted, will replace the current SCI.
