Extending Existing Planning Permissions
The Government have announced a one year extension to the temporary provisions which allow applicants to extend the time limits for implementing a planning permission. From 1st of October 2012 a new 12-month cohort of planning permissions come within the scope of these provisions. This means applicants with unimplemented, extant planning permissions granted on or before 1 October 2010 (previously the deadline was 1 October 2009) will now be able to apply for a replacement permission for the same development, subject to a new time limit for implementation. As before, such applications will be subject to a lower fee, less onerous information and consultation requirements and a design and access statement will not be required. Do you have an unimplemented, extant planning … Continue reading

Planning problems halting your business growth?
A survey of Federation of Small Business (FSB) members has found that small companies are “being held back from growing as quickly as they could by the ongoing failure of the planning system to allow them to grow”.
