Date: 1/11/2007

A paper prepared by POS Enterprises aimed at giving initial guidance on the emerging practice of Development Management to an audience drawn principally from planning staff and managers in local authorities.   Project work with eight local authorities provide practical experience for inclusion in an updated and improved version of the initial guidance and was published in November 2008.

The guidance is set out in four parts, followed by three technical annexes and a summary annex as follows:

• What does Development Management mean?
• What is Development Management based upon?
• How will it operate in practice?
• What are the benefits?
