Consultation description

This consultation invites comments on draft regulations which create an exemption to the requirement in the Neighbourhood Planning Act 2017 that local planning authorities obtain the written agreement of an applicant before imposing a pre-commencement condition on a grant of planning permission.

Responses to this consultation will assist in the government’s commitment to improve the use of planning conditions and reduce unnecessary delays in the determination of planning applications.
