25 September 2024SLCC has submitted its response to the government’s recent consultation on proposed changes to the NPPF. We would like to thank all members whose comments helped contribute to our response. In preparing our response we also worked closely with NALC. If implemented, the changes would see major changes in the planning system in England to support its wider objective “to achieve sustainable growth in our planning system” and “commitments to achieve economic growth and build 1.5 million new homes”.
Meanwhile, there are strong indications from the government that the publication of the revised NPPF following the consultation may be delayed until the New Year due to the “thousands and thousands” of consultation responses received.
