Saturday 12 October 2024 marks 100 days of the new Labour Government.
In anticipation of this milestone Landmark Chambers and Town Legal hosted a seminar in London this week to provide an in-depth review of Labour's first 100 days in power and the impact on planning law and policy.
The session was recorded so that Sam Stafford could share it by way of the 50 Shades podcast and planners will be glad that it was recorded because it contains analysis and insight of the highest order. This episode includes:
- Rupert Warren talking about the NPPF, local plans and housing;
- Meeta Kaur talking about new towns;
- Russell Harris talking about London;
- Simon Ricketts talking about infrastructure and commercial development; and
- Isabella Buono talking about Grey Belt and affordable housing.

50 Shades T-Shirts!
If you have listened to Episode 45 of the 50 Shades of Planning you will have heard Clive Betts say that...
'In the Netherlands planning is seen as part of the solution. In the UK, too often, planning is seen as part of the problem'.
Sam said in reply that that would look good on a t-shirt and it does. Further details can be found here: http://samuelstafford.blogspot.com/2021/07/50-shades-of-planning-t-shirts.html
