Abstract
Seeks comments on a draft of a new Planning policy statement (PPS) 7: sustainable development in rural areas. This PPS will replace Planning policy guidance note 7: the countryside - environmental quality and economic and social development (PPG7). The draft sets out the Government's broad policy objectives relevant to rural areas in England, and its proposed planning policies that will help deliver these objectives. These policies are based on the principles of sustainable development and the need to protect the wider, largely undeveloped countryside for the benefit of all.
