Abstract
Looks at the operation and effectiveness of NPPG 16. This study looks at the impact of NPPG 16 on the development plan and planning decision-making processes, including the degree of local discretion given to individual planning authorities; the extent to which the guidance given in NPPG 16 is being implemented in a consistent manner at the local level; whether any areas of the guidance in NPPG 16 might require further refinement in order to secure the overall policy objectives, and make recommendations in this regard.
