To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what steps he is taking to strengthen the role of neighbourhood plans in planning decisions.
Answered by Christopher Pincher
The National Planning Policy Framework is clear about the important role that neighbourhood plans play in our plan-led system and neighbourhood plans continue to have real statutory weight in planning decisions.

Question
to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:
What steps he is taking to ensure that neighbourhood plans continue to be prioritised as part of the reformed planning system.
Answered by Robert Jenrick
Neighbourhood plans are a valuable tool that empower communities to proactively shape what their areas will look like.
As we set out in the Planning White Paper – neighbourhood plans will continue to play a key role in our reformed planning system.
Indeed under the new system neighbourhood planning groups will have a stronger role in producing local design codes – setting out the preferences of the local community and the high standards that new development will be expected to meet.
