Mr. Raynsford

The Government have encouraged good practice on planning enforcement by publishing "Enforcing Planning Control: Good Practice Guide for Local Planning Authorities", in July 1997. The Guide covers good practice on investigation, negotiation and formal action, illustrated by actual cases. A copy of the Guide is available in the Library.
