Planning and Infrastructure BillContribution
As part of reforms to the local plan-making system, MHCLG is considering broadening the range of organisations prescribed as a “specific consultation body”, and to prescribe key infrastructure providers under the new “requirement to assist”. Being prescribed under these duties would see organisations recognised as key stakeholders in shaping plans, ensuring that their input is sought at key points and taken into account in how plans are developed and evidenced.
