No5 Barristers' Chambers Planning Podcast - Episode 3 - Covid-consequences: Little Ships

This week the Planning Team at No5 Barristers' Chambers look at recession, small builders, small housing sites, policy changes post the 2008 liquidity crisis and the 2010-12 series of dips in growth; affordable housing and levers to spur economic activity, shore up housing numbers and meet delivery tests.

The team also cover the policy levers pulled in the past, how they work today and prompt a debate about the role of small sites and encouraging them to deliver to aid growth, and maintain delivery.

Christian Hawley refers to two EiPs (Reading at [§45] and Oxford City Council) and an appeal decision (Sywell Road, Overstone; see §22-24).
