Episode description

Key planning news, and why it’s important, brought to you by the team behind Planning magazine, the leading source of independent intelligence for planning professionals for 50 years. planningresource.co.uk @planningMag

In this episode we’ll explore: 

  • How would the proposed revisions change what councils need to do to demonstrate an adequate supply of sites for housebuilding?
  • Will the updated NPPF reduce the pressure on councils to grant permissions and allocate land for housing?
  • Will the proposed revisions make it easier for councils to avoid losing planning powers if housing delivery in their areas is below the government’s benchmarks? 
  • How would the proposed revisions change the tests faced by councils when their local plans are examined, and what are the implications for planners and landowners?

PLUS the key news from the past week.
