Development Control and Management

Development control and management is the process through which the local planning authority determines whether applications for consent should be granted (often subject to conditions or a legal agreement) or refused; also involves the planning enforcement function and giving of advice on planning matters. Consideration of these matters must be done by taking into account the development plan and any other material considerations.
