A fantastic article writtten by Matt Ridley at The Times.
"Land-use planning in Britain is not a joke; it’s a disgrace. The present system is grotesquely biased, not so much in favour of opponents or proponents of development, but in favour of delay and cost. I happen to think HS2 and Hinkley Point C are mistakes, but if I’ve lost those battles — and I probably have — then at least let’s get on and build them quickly, rather than spend the next decade paying lawyers and consultants to slow them down and inflate their costs."
Although he attempts to lay the blame with lawyers and consultants, he couldn't be further from the truth. This article actually re-inforces the need to hire a dedicated planning consultant for any project. Do not be drawn into cost saving exercises by letting an architect deal with the planning permission. Invest in a planning consultant who can steer your project through the redtape nightmare that is the British Planning system.
