Planning Advisory Service review
We arranged for the Planning Advisory Service (PAS) to undertake an independent review of the Partial Review process.
PAS is independent, working neither for a particular company, nor any individual political party, and is part-funded by the Department for Communities and Local Government (CLG) to support local authorities in their planning functions. Further information about the PAS Review is available in the project initiation document.
The findings of the review are available in the final report.
