Neighbourhood Area combining a parished and unparished area.

Hi 

I have a group of parish councils and parish meetings who want to develope a neighbourhood plan covering their area. A Parish Meeting is classed as an unparished area.  All of the guidance I have looked at is very binary.  A simple route to take for parishes to be designated, or a different route for unparished areas bto take in order to be designated as a neighbourhood area.  Has annyone come across an example where an area covers both parished and unparished ares, and if so what route such an area could be designated?  Im hoping that the neighbourhood forum route could be used, but any other views would be appreciated.

We had an instance of this (Heversham and Hincaster). 

The unparished area (Hincaster) had a Parish Meeting and they agreed that they were content for Heversham Parish Council to act as Neighbourhood Planning Body.

Another issue to be aware of is that a Parish Meeting cannot recieve Neighbourhood CIL so a separate process was needed to approve neighbourhood CIL spending in Hincaster

Same here in the case of Bradford Abbas and Clifton Maybank - the Parish Council (Bradford Abbas) are the responsible body for the whole area, following consultation with the community and approval of the LPA to the NP Area boundary.    

I don't believe this could be done via a Neighbourhood Forum because these are precluded from operating in areas where Parish Councils exist.
