Ep224: What the pausing of the local government reorganisation programme means for planners
Room 106Show Notes
In this episode, we’ll be taking a close look at the government’s surprise announcement of a review of its long-standing local government reorganisation programme. We’ll also be discussing:
A Reform UK council mayor declaring he is “extremely unhappy” that planning officers failed to bring a 910-home green belt plan to committee on time. The chancellor announcing that a mechanism to allow Parliament to designate and approve major energy schemes that are of “critical national importance” will be extended to all nationally significant infrastructure projects.
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 more than 50 years.
