  We have updated the list of document types, adding in management-plan after Leicester Council expressed a need for this document type.

  Data frequency update is listed as 'ad hoc', as it is listed as 'as needed' at: https://opendata-historicengland.hub.arcgis.com/datasets/historicengland::conservation-areas/explore?location=52.761369%2C-2.491828%2C6.62

• Kieran Wint (04 September 2024)

  As per some research we did, summarised in this blog on an analysis of local plans and local area requirements, we're confident that this consideration acts as an INPUT to the process of creating a local plan.
