Certificates of Lawful Use and Permitted Development Rights – Navigating the System
In the last of our quarterly webinar series, we focus on Certificates of Lawful Use and Permitted Development Rights – Navigating the System.
In this webinar, we look at the detail of how and when Certificates of Lawful Use can be used as a tool to regularise an existing or proposed planning use. This often comes hand in hand with permitted development rights which can be a tricky regime to navigate, so we will also be focussing on the prior approvals process and the latest reforms which have been subject to a recent High Court challenge.
This session is chaired by Sarah Sutherland, who is joined by colleague Hannah Mannion (Solicitor).
