West Suffolk Council Response to 'Planning for the Future Consultation'
PDF 145 KBOn 6 August 2020, the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) launched the Planning for the Future White Paper and consultation, which focused on substantial planning reforms.
The White Paper consultation covered a package of proposals for reforms of the planning system, covering plan-making, development management, development contributions and other related policy proposals. The introduction of new primary and secondary legislation to give effect to the changes is likely to come into effect in 2021.
The Government was, therefore, seeking comments on this consultation before 29 October 2020 and the Leader of the Council is being asked to endorse the response from the West Suffolk Council to the Government’s White Paper on Planning for the Future.
