The planning system is now at the heart of heated national political debates. The Government is determined to make the planning system fit for purpose and we are experiencing some of the most significant and dynamic changes since its inception over 60 years ago. The reforms are dramatic, far reaching and difficult to grapple with during a period of economic recovery and increasing speculative development activity. Attend this conference to hear a thorough and practical examination of the key issues that you will face in the delivery of sustainable development.
