Industry specialists lead a comprehensive interactive appraisal of the big issues in Cambridgeshire planning at the moment - vital for all developers, promoters, landowners and professionals acting on development in the county.
The conference aims to take stock of where we are and map out the likely way ahead in what is likely to be a challenging couple of years as the Labour government introduces a new NPPF and outlines their plans to deliver their manifesto promises.
