Devon CPRE workshop to examine changes to national planning policy


A workshop exploring major changes to national planning policy and their implications for democratic decision-making will be held by Devon CPRE later this month.
The event, entitled ‘What’s new in the NPPF – Is this the end of democratic planning?’, will take place on 20 November from 10.30am to 12.30pm at Exeter Court Hotel, Kennford.
It will focus on the newly revised National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), examining the significant changes introduced by the Government and what they mean for the planning process.
The workshop will be presented by experienced planning consultant Jo Widdecombe, who will discuss the key changes and their implications for communities and the planning system.
Devon CPRE, the countryside charity which campaigns to protect and enhance the county’s rural environment, is offering free places to its members and member organisations, including refreshments. Up to three people per member council can attend free of charge.
Non-members can attend for £15 per person.
