These are the questions we answer during the Screen stage.

Answering them wil help us learn more about the Neighbourhood development order consideration, determine if a data standard is required and whether we know enough to move on to the next stage.

  • What is the 'Neighbourhood development order' consideration?

    A Neighbourhood Development Order can grant planning permission for specific types of development in a specific neighbourhood area. A Neighbourhood Development Order can therefore:

    • apply to a specific site, sites, or wider geographical area
    • grant planning permission for a certain type or types of development
    • grant planning permission outright or subject to conditions.

  • Is there legislation that defines 'Neighbourhood development order'?

  • Who, in law, is responsible for the planning consideration or makes decisions about 'Neighbourhood development order'?

  • Which organisations do we think should publish the data?

  • Is the Neighbourhood development order a trigger?

    Yes

    • What needs to be done because Neighbourhood development order has acted as the trigger?

      A Neighbourhood Development Order can be used to permit:

      • building operations (eg structural alterations, construction, demolition or other works carried out by a builder)
      • material changes of use of land and buildings; and/or
      • engineering operations

  • Is the Neighbourhood development order something to consult during plan making?

  • Is there any Neighbourhood development order data already available?

  • Do we think the data should come from a single source?

  • Will a data standard be required?
