At Plan-et, one of our main sources of updates and information are the Planning Barristers at Landmark Chambers. One of their number, Christopher (Kit Kat) Katkowski, QC joined the Government's Task Force developing the ideas for the new White Paper. Asked what his vision of the new planning regime is he replied:
​
"The vision is to create an efficient, inclusive and accessible planning system in which everyone can contribute to making the area in which they live, somewhere they can have pride in; where no-one's excluded and where everyone can understand what's going on and play a worthwhile part in getting things right."
​
To us at Plan-et, that sounds like "Neighbourhood Planning"

So if you would like this opportunity to find out about Neighbourhood Plans, and want to ask questions we are continuing to offer this service through a Zoom meeting if you feel it is appropriate for your group. AND, the bonus to you is, where we used to ask for a contribution towards our travel, you will no longer have this cost! ​
