Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:

To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, if he has made an assessment of the potential merits of permanently extending the 28 day planning rule to 56 nights for pop-up campsites.

We have recently consulted on the introduction of a new permitted development right to support temporary recreational campsites for up to 60 days per year. The consultation closed on Tuesday 25 April 2023 and further announcements will be made in due course. Further details can be found at the following link.
