Planning and Climate Change - Supplement to Planning Policy Statement 1 (Paperback)

Planning Policy Statements (PPS) set out the Government's national policies on different aspects of spatial planning in England. PPS1 sets out the overarching planning policies on the delivery of sustainable development through the planning system. This PPS on climate change supplements PPS1 by setting out how planning should contribute to reducing emissions and stabilising climate change and take into account the unavoidable consequences. It does not seek to assemble all national planning policy relevant or applicable to climate change and should be read alongside the national PPS/G series. Where there is difference in emphasis on climate change between the policies in this PPS and others in the national series this is intentional and this PPS takes precedence. This document is a supplement to PPS1, "Delivering sustainable development" (ISBN 9780117539396)
