Report of the Director of the Built Environment.

The Committee received a report of the Director of the Built Environment regarding the revised National Planning Policy Framework.

Officers reported that, generally, there had been a shift towards housing with a reduced focus on the economy which was not necessarily in the City’s long-term interests. The City Corporation had responded on the housing delivery test methodology highlighting the risks for the organisation were the government to be inflexible in their approach to this.

RESOLVED – That, Members note the publication of the revised NPPF and the key implications for the City of London set out in the report.
