Sustainable Buildings SPD

Representation ID: 46

Received: 10/10/2008

Respondent: Cllr George Illingworth

Representation Summary:

This SPD relates essentially to requirements to obtain planning permission for new developments. However the recent expansion of permitted development rights by the Government means that fewer minor developments will require planning permission and therefore the application of the SPD will be reduced. Building Regulations will still apply to these minor works and we wonder how the SPD could be used to influence good practice in those circumstances.
