Ateb
Atebwyd gan Cabinet Secretary for Economy, Energy and Planning
Planning services are finding it hard to meet expectations due to significant financial and staffing pressures. I have recently commissioned the Royal Town Planning Institute to undertake a piece of work on ‘workforce planning’ which will be published in the summer. It will provide a detailed picture of the capacity, resource and skills situation across public sector planning services. To increase the pipeline of new entrants entering the planning profession, I have recently provided funding through the Pathways to Planning project to support local planning authority staff obtain a planning qualification.
