In this Deep Dive edition, we’ll be discussing Planning’s investigation into the Labour government’s much-trumpeted promise to recruit 1,400 extra planning officers for councils before the end of the current parliament. We’ll be examining:


  • What was promised;
  • Progress to date and how likely the pledge is to be delivered;
  • And the impact it could have on under-resourced council planning teams.


Key planning news, and why it is important, brought to you by the team behind Planning magazine, the leading source of independent intelligence for planning professionals for 50 years.
