To answer the noble Baroness’s question about provisions in the Levelling-up and Regeneration Act 2023 on authority-wide design codes and when they will be commenced, as part of the 2024 consultation on the NPPF, we asked whether local authority design codes should focus on locations where there is the greatest scope for change—for example, increased densities and new, large-scale development—rather than setting design requirements that apply district-wide.
