Consultation: Proposed reforms to the National Planning Policy Framework and other changes to the planning system
Your views invited.
CIAT has been advised of a consultation regarding Proposed reforms to the National Planning Policy Framework and other changes to the planning system.
This consultation is seeking views on the proposed approach to revising the NPPF. It also seeks views on a series of wider national planning policy reforms.
As a member of CIAT we would encourage you to contribute to the response to enable a fair reflection of the membership's views. It is extremely important that the membership gets involved; sending in opinions and comments regarding consultations, so that CIAT can be heard on your behalf.
To create the best response, Sarah May FCIAT, CIAT’s Technical Coordinator, is holding a consultation workshop on Thursday 29 August, 13:00-14:30, which will be interactive and engaging to enable full consultation and gathering of responses with and from members in attendance. What does this mean…you only have to review and respond once, in a room with likeminded people who share the same values and professional experience.
If you would like to attend the workshop, please complete this form which is the general expression of interest form, indicating the consultation you are interested in.
You can also send in your comments/response if you can’t attend the workshop. You can do this by sending your response to [email protected] by Tuesday 10 September, with the subject title Proposed reforms to the National Planning Policy Framework and other changes to the planning system.

Consultation description
This consultation seeks views on our proposed approach to revising the National Planning Policy Framework in order to achieve sustainable growth in our planning system.
We are also seeking views on a series of wider policy proposals in relation to increasing planning fees, local plan intervention criteria and appropriate thresholds for certain Nationally Significant Infrastructure Projects.
The Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government is responsible for this consultation.
The existing NPPF can be found here and the new draft with proposed reforms under the last Government is here.
