Petition Revoke prior approval legislation relating to the demolition of buildings.

Time and again I have been contacted by residents who are angry and frustrated that they are not able to formally object to the demolition of commercial and residential properties in their area through the traditional planning route.

More details

The Prior Approval legislation under the Town & Country Planning Act enables landowners/developers to demolish properties without formal challenge by residents through the planning process. This is totally undemocratic!
