Amending Planning Consents - A Guide to the Options Available

Introduction

Making necessary adjustments to planning permissions as schemes evolve can prove a difficult process.

As the explanatory notes to the Levelling Up and Regeneration Bill (LURB) put it, ‘the existing framework for varying planning permissions is often seen as confusing, burdensome, and overly restrictive by applicants and local planning authorities. Recent case law has compounded these issues’.

This virtual classroom seminar will consider the options available for amending consents in the light of recent case law and offer some practical insights.

Future developments will also be considered.
