Article summary

The Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) has launched a call for expression of interests in the Local Plan Pathfinder programme. The Pathfinder projects are aimed to test digital and data aspects of planning reforms, as set out in the Planning White Paper. The projects will illustrate how reforms will benefit the local government sector and seek to bring ten local authorities together to view the digital transformation of local plans, speeding up planning processes. The transition to interactive map based local plans should allow local individuals to engage with planning. Expressions of interests should be submitted by 9 April 2021.
