PPS 15: Planning for the Historic Environment – The Consultation Period has begun

PPS 15 – Planning for the Historic Environment invites views on a new Planning Policy Statement (PPS) that will replace Planning Policy Guidance 15: Planning and the Historic Environment (PPG15) and Planning Policy Guidance 16: Archaeology and Planning (PPG16).

It reflects a more modern, integrated approach which defines the historic environment in terms of heritage assets to be conserved in accordance with a set of principles and in proportion to their significance. It also takes account of the commitment in Planning for a Sustainable Future: White Paper, published on 21 May 2007, to streamline existing PPSs and PPGs and separate policy from guidance. It is supported by guidance by English Heritage.
