Planning for Climate Change Guidance for LAs

November 2010: The Town and Country Planning Association (TCPA) along with a long list of supporting organisations have issued guidance and model policies for local authorities who wish to advance policies to tackle climate change. It draws explicitly on the Government’s draft Planning Policy Statement (PPS) on climate and energy, Consultation on a Planning Policy Statement: Planning for a Low Carbon Future in a Changing Climate, published in March 2010, and it “seeks to reflect the wide-ranging consensus which that document commanded.”
