Interesting that the minister states all 'neighbourhood plans would have to be in keeping with the local plan'. If that is the case I don't see any difference to the local planning system currently in place.....Neighbourhood planning policy, like the current conservation and development area considerations would still be defined through the 'local plan' for which residents have a right of consultation every what, 10 years of so....
With peace and consolation hath dismist, And calm of mind all passion spent...
