Eat, Sleep, Plan, Repeat!

Planning large-scale communities

It has been a dizzying 12 months in planning. The new Labour government has brought forward and announced a raft of new legislation, policy and guidance and it has been a busy time in the Courts. The conference title - Eat, Sleep, Plan, Repeat - echoes the frenetic pace of activity and the onus on the planning system to deliver economic growth and meet the target (in England) of 1.5 million homes during this parliament.

Rachel Fisher will cover 'Eat' and the relationship or disconnect between our planning system and other land uses such as food production. Peter Freeman CBE and James Maurici KC will address where a growing population will 'Sleep' and how to deliver all the homes we need. Catriona Riddell, Nicholle Kingsley, Simon Berkeley, James Scott will tell us how to 'Plan' better and faster. And the ever-popular legal update will 'Repeat' with Constanze Bell.

The conference papers will provide technical and practical knowledge to help us all in our day to day work across:

• Boosting growth
• Housing delivery
• Strategic planning
• Development plans
• Land use and planning
• Legal strategies for consents
• Planning large-scale communities
• Legal update
