Will the Cabinet Secretary provide, per local planning authority, a) details of the expected timetable to review and update their local development plans, and b) details of the expected duration of the authority's next local development plan?
Answer
Answered by Cabinet Secretary for Housing, Local Government and Planning
Local Development Plans (LDPs) must be reviewed every four years from the date of adoption. It is for the Local Planning Authority (LPA) to conclude, based on evidence, whether a replacement LDP is required. The plan period is usually fifteen years. Detailed LDP timetables are available on each LPA website. A summary of the current position is provided below.
