The Government is committed to the protection of our historic environment, including our World Heritage Sites. As set out in the recent Planning White Paper, Planning for the Future , we consider that the existing heritage planning framework has worked well and we want to build on it as we develop the new planning system. In bringing forward our reforms we will work with those who have experience and expert knowledge of the planning system to ensure that our heritage is fully considered and continues to be protected going forward.
