Summary
We have published the draft National Planning Policy Framework for consultation. This is a key part of our reforms to make the planning system less complex and more accessible, and to promote sustainable growth. We are keen to hear views from all interested parties on the draft and how it might be improved.
Please find below the consultation draft of the National Planning Policy Framework. You will also find a link to the associated draft Impact Assessment, and a link to the consultation document which explains how you can send us your comments (preferably by the internet questionnaire we have set up).
This consultation will close on 17 October 2011.

My personal view of the world via the articles i read and post, because I believe in that path, mixed with the views of others who sometimes clash with my point of view... very badly at times! Spot which ones they are. DYK that if you had projectbrainsaver type kit you would already know that, and so much more!
