Outline Planning Reform in conversation with Lord Gavin Barwell
18 September 2024, 10:00 – 11:00 GMT
Within days of taking office the new government began to deliver on its pre-election commitment to reform the planning system in England to boost housing delivery and economic growth. While the problems of the current system are clear, will the government's proposals deliver, and what do they mean for the real estate sector? Will they lead to the delivery of the housing we need? Should data centres form part of the DCO regime? Is the 'grey belt' the answer to the long-standing problems caused by Green Belt restrictions?
In a special edition of Outline, Trevor Ivory will be discussing the latest round of planning reforms and trying to answer your questions in conversation with former Housing & Planning Minister and Chief of Staff to Theresa May, Lord Gavin Barwell.
