In this episode, we’ll unsurprisingly be discussing the publication of a new and heavily rewritten draft version of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF). We’re going to devote almost the whole show to the new framework, which came out just before Christmas, including looking at the very different structure and approach in the draft document as well as proposed changes around densification of development, the presumption in favour of sustainable development, viability, green belt, strategic planning and local housing need.

Key planning news, and why it is important, brought to you by the team behind Planning magazine, the leading source of independent intelligence for planning professionals for 50 years.
