4.1 The Neighbourhood Plan will be implemented through New Forest District Council and New Forest National Park Authority consideration and determination of planning applications for development in the Town. The Town Council will monitor the effectiveness of the policies through the development management process. In addition, New Forest District Council monitor the implementation of Neighbourhood Plan policies, once adopted, through the Authority Monitoring Report which is published annually. This report is prepared in consultation with relevant Town council each year.

4.2 The Town Council will use a combination of the Local Plan and this Neighbourhood Plan policies to inform and determine its planning application decisions. The Town Council is a statutory consultee on planning applications made in the Town and it will be made aware of any future planning applications or alterations to those applications by the planning authority. It will seek to ensure that the Neighbourhood Plan policies have been identified and applied correctly by applicants and by officers in their decision reports.

4.3 The success or otherwise of the policies will feed into the assessment of the need for a review of the Plan.

4.4 Opportunities may arise through S106 agreements or through the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) to secure financial contributions to invest in improving local infrastructure. When the Neighbourhood Plan is made, the Town Council will be able to determine how and where 25% of the CIL collected from schemes in the Town is spent (currently only 15%) in accordance with the CIL Regulations.

4.5 The Town will prioritise the following for investment of future Community Infrastructure Levy, and/or S106 funding received by the local planning authority as follows:
