Question
What action is the Welsh Government taking to ensure that local authorities make timely planning decisions?
Answer
Answered by Cabinet Secretary for Economy, Energy and Planning
The high-quality performance of the planning service is an important priority for all of us. All service users expect a system which balances timeliness, efficiency and results in outcomes which deliver the high-quality places our communities and economy need.
The Planning Performance Framework has been re-introduced, and from 1 April 2025 will monitor and report on the efficiency of service delivery in Local Planning Authorities and other stakeholders, including the Welsh Ministers.
