What the platform is and how its objection process works.
ObjectNow is a campaign-specific public participation platform. For a supported proposal, ObjectNow prepares a structured evidence base and campaign material in advance. A user then chooses the issues that matter to them, can provide relevant personal or local information, reviews the resulting representation, edits it if they wish, and decides whether to submit it.
The platform is intended to help people participate in planning and infrastructure consultations. It does not make the decision to object for the user and it does not replace the user’s responsibility to check that their final representation accurately reflects their own views.

No. The platform is designed around user choice. Campaign material is prepared in advance, but the individual chooses whether to participate and which available concerns they want to raise. Where the platform allows personal information or additional comments, the user decides what to provide.
Before submission, the representation should be reviewed by the user. Sections can be removed or edited where the campaign configuration permits. The final decision to submit remains with the individual.

No. ObjectNow’s current model is human-led and campaign-specific. The underlying planning issues, evidence and foundation material are prepared and reviewed as part of the campaign setup. Technology may assist with phrasing, grammar, document handling or producing variations from that approved material, but it is not intended to invent new planning facts or independently decide the grounds of objection.
The user remains responsible for reviewing the final text and ensuring it represents their views before submission.
