Webinar – PC in 2020: Has the Planning Court proved a success? What should be its future, and that of judicial review and statutory challenges in the planning system, in the light of the Faulks review?

Programme

The webinar will consider: • What has been the impact on the planning system of the creation of the Planning Court in 2014 and related associated reforms? Is it faster? Is it fairer? Has access to justice been maintained for those who need it? • Where is there still room for improvement? • Looking at the Town Legal/Landmark Chambers Planning Court Case Explorer tool, what do the statistics tell us? • How could the new system outlined in the Planning White Paper be refined so as to reduce the need for litigation? • Views on the questions raised in the Faulks review’s call for evidence • Viewpoints of those representing developers, public authorities and communities.
