Planning

The BPF Planning Committee is our principal member forum for shaping the property sector’s response to the national planning policy reform agenda and other relevant planning policy issues. The committee leads on the BPF responses to relevant planning policy consultations from national government as well as issuing proactive thought leadership publications such as our Planning Manifesto ahead of the 2024 General Election. Its membership is drawn from planning directors at principal developers, planning consultants and planning lawyers within the BPF membership.

The BPF Planning Committee engages with key planning stakeholders including government officials from MHCLG and other departments, relevant statutory consultees, wider industry stakeholders and local authority planning stakeholders.
