Roundtable 6 - The near future of planning and local government reform in England and on the island of Ireland: Key themes and emerging research questions

Description

At last year’s Planning Research Conference, the RTPI chaired a roundtable which unpicked the new UK Government’s planning reform agenda for England and identified emerging research questions, with a particular focus on those policy issues which may slipped under scholars’ radar.

A year later, and in the context of accelerating planning reform on both sides of the Irish sea, this roundtable will continue this discussion, with an emphasis on the intersection of local government reform and changing planning systems.

The speakers’ work across a range of national contexts will bring a strong comparative element to the discussion.
