- Outline the main changes that affect local plans and housing targets 
- Address Green Belt, Grey Belt and Brownfield considerations with examples 
- Explain consequences for Neighbourhood Development Plans 
- Introduce changes that will be bought about by elements of the new Planning and Infrastructure bill 
- Provide access to recommended resources, further guidance, and commentary 
The session is suitable for all clerks and councillors and works well in conjunction with the Planning in Plain English training offered by the same trainer.
