Overview

This consultation contains proposed changes to the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015, as amended. It covers the following areas:

  • A new permitted development right to support temporary recreational campsites.
  • Changes to the existing permitted development rights for solar equipment and a new permitted development right for solar canopies.
  • Amendment to the existing permitted development right which allows local authorities to undertake certain development. This change would allow bodies to undertake the work on behalf of the local authority.
  • Changes to the existing permitted development right allowing for the temporary use of buildings or land for film-making purposes.
