Practical planning advice
Article Abstract:
UK planning appeals have been set strict targets by the Planning Inspectorate to ensure hearings are heard quickly and fairly. About 80% of appeals must be agreed within 20 weeks during 1998, while hearings should be settled within 33 weeks and inquiries should be completed by 44 weeks. The UK government is trying to prevent the sale of school playing fields for development purposes by making it a legal requirement for schools to inform and seek permission from education authorities before playing fields can be sold.
