Neighbourhood Planning - Lessons Learned from Recent Case Law

Introduction

Neighbourhood planning has been around since 2011 and is a significant element of the modern planning system.

For local authorities there is the need to actively support communities in promoting their plans. For developers there is a new and potentially disruptive element within the already complex planning policy matrix. For communities themselves there is the challenge of creating a document with statutory significance, often from a standpoint of little formal knowledge.

This webinar will provide an essential update on neighbourhood planning and consider how recent court decisions have clarified some key principles governing the system.
