The government has published guidance confirming the
details of measures that will see major infrastructure projects that include up
to 500 homes considered as a Nationally Significant Infrastructure Project
(NSIP). This follows regulations about such schemes being laid before
Parliament. The guidance covers changes to the Planning Act 2008 made by
section 160 of the Housing and Planning Act 2016, which received Royal Assent
in May last year. The guidance states that the government wants to ensure that
the flexibility being provided to allow an element of housing to be consented
under the 2008 Act “does not undermine the local planning process and the wider
responsibilities for local authorities to plan for housing needs in their
area”. Read more on the Planning Portal.
