Campaign for fair planning
“Help stop our planning policies being biased. If you care about the future of your local neighbourhood then write now to your local newspaper and tell them”
Griff Rhys Jones, Civic Voice President
Fair planning campaign – the final push
|
The national planning policies we all rely on to protect our local neighbourhood are being overhauled. Important safeguards are being swept away. We need your help to put people and local places at the heart of fair planning. Please write to your MP asking for their support.

Planning will never be easy. There is too much at stake. Planning policy has trodden carefully for decades. It is about to step massively out of line.
A new National Planning Policy Framework is being prepared. It will bias planning decisions in favour of development.
The review has been headline news for months. This isn’t surprising. Its impact could be devastating. The everyday places where most of us live will bear the brunt. The tragedy of it all is that planning is no obstacle to the country’s economic health and over 80% of planning applications already get permission.
If you share our concerns then please let your MP know. It will only take a few minutes. We have drafted a letter for you to use or amend and it will be sent automatically to your MP by email. Your views count. The Government is rattled and every voice will make a difference.
