The government has announced proposed changes to national planning rules for brownfield sites and has opened a consultation for views.
The changes include proposals that will “make clear that when considering planning applications, local planning authorities should give significant weight to the benefits of delivering as many homes as possible, especially where this involves land which is previously developed”.
This consultation will begin on 13 February 2024 and close at 11.45pm on 26 March 2024.
