Revisions to the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) were published for consultation by the Prime Minister and the Secretary of State for Housing and Local Government on 5 March 2018.
The NPPF sets out a national framework for planning policy in England which must be taken into account by local planning authorities (LPAs) when setting local planning policy for their area and when making decisions on whether to grant planning permission.
The primary intention of the draft revised NPPF is to speed up the delivery of housing development in England, with a target of increasing housing supply to deliver 300,000 homes a year by the mid-2020s.
The changes proposed are numerous, although many have been raised and debated previously. Insofar as housing is concerned, amongst other things:
To support the draft NPPF and housing delivery, the government is also undertaking a separate consultation on reforming developer contributions towards affordable housing and infrastructure. It is also considering changes to the Community Infrastructure Levy and the developer contributions required by planning and highway legal agreements.
The deadline for comments on the draft NPPF is 10 May, with the aim of adopting the final amended framework sometime in the summer of 2018.

As such, it represents a major development in the EU gas market.
