CONCLUSIONS
24. The preparation of up-to-date, relevant development plans is a cornerstone of the modernisation of the planning system and strategic development plans will lead the way in shaping the future growth of our largest city regions. The establishment of effective joint working arrangements is critical to the delivery of the new strategic development plans. This consultation paper sets out the proposed designation orders for the Strategic Development Planning Authorities and draft statutory guidance covering the overarching principles for SDPA governance and funding. We welcome comments from a wide range of stakeholders on the effectiveness of these proposals.
Q6: What other issues would you like to see covered in the statutory guidance for SDPAs?
