Planning - Crown immunity |
|
|
Traditionally, developments carried out by the Crown (including government
departments) are not subject to local planning control (although government
departments are required to consult over planned developments). That has now largely changed, as a result of Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004
having come into force last month. Minor exceptions still apply, but the basic
principle now is that the Crown is no longer immune in planning matters.
