De la contraportada

Determining whether planning permission is needed, deciding on the type of applications, and then actually making the application can be highly complicated and fraught with difficulties. Considerable sums of money can be at stake if the applicant gets it wrong.

This highly practical guide takes the reader step-by-step through the various procedures for obtaining planning permission.

The Third Edition has been substantially revised to take account of the new acts, statutory instruments and circulars published since the last edition in 1990, in particular the:

• Planning and Compensation Act 1991


• General Development Procedures Order 1995


• General Permitted Development Order 1995

It also includes the statutory forms which have to be served at various stages of an application, and features a number of other useful model forms.

This book provides a truly effective working tool for anyone dealing with development, be they architects, planners, surveyors, lawyers, estate agents, developers or builders. It is an essential reference book for students of planning surveying and architecture, and will also be of interest to local planning authorities.
