Room 106

Ep25: What new Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and the return of Michael Gove as levelling up secretary mean for planning, and will investment zones survive the end of Liz Truss’s administration?


Listen Later

In this episode we’ll explore:

  • Rishi Sunak’s installation as prime minister – what does it mean for planning?
  • Michael Gove’s return as levelling up secretary – what’s at the top of his in-tray?
  • And two of the UK’s biggest firms of planning solicitors consider merging – what might this mean for the planning law sector?

PLUS Investment zones: what kinds of sites are coming forward, and will they survive Liz Truss’s departure as prime minister?                                                                                                                                    

AND in our readers’ choice section, the councillor who now has police protection after an “angry mob” disrupted a community event to protest against a planning approval.

By the end of the show, you should know enough to approach the office coffee machine with confidence.
