The focus of this survey is Section 11 of the SoP, which covers the Priorities and Measures identified for County Durham.
We have provided a summary of Section 11 for you to read. The summary only provides an overview of the priorities and measures, so please refer to the Statement of Priorities for the full details and background.

Please note, as we consulted on what should be included in the list of priorities and measures in Phase 2, we are not looking to add additional priorities or measures at this stage. Instead, there will be an opportunity to introduce new priorities and measures when the LNRS is next reviewed.
