Changes in the world of rural planning are the main topics of a Thrings-led discussion at BIAC’s national conference next month.
Sponsored by Thrings and this year celebrating its 25th anniversary, the annual event organised by the British Institute of Agricultural Consultants (BIAC) to bring together professional agricultural sector advisors to connect and share expertise.
This year’s theme “Between the green belt and a hard place” is set to explore revitalising the countryside through effective rural planning, with two of Thrings’ planning experts delivering a presentation on the national stage.
In a talk titled “Falling back in love with the future”, Senior Associate Lorraine Neve and Associate Rebecca Stanton will give BIAC members a run through of what recent updates to the National Planning Policy Formula (NPPF) will mean for rural planning.
Lorraine Neve, Senior Associate in the Thrings Planning and Environment team, said: “We are looking forward to discussing the latest changes to legislation with BIAC’s members. So much has happened in the world of planning over the past year, with both the Conservative and then Labour governments having introduced overlapping changes that landowners and developers need to be aware of. It will be very interesting to see how they perceive these changes impacting their clients.”
The BIAC National Planning Conference takes place on Thursday, 10 October at The British Motor Museum in Gaydon, Warwickshire. To find out more, click here.
