The CBI has published a major campaigning paper Planning for Productivity a ten-point action plan. The goal is to ensure the planning system:

 Delivers decisions that are more coherent, consistent and well justified

 Reaches decisions with minimum delay

 Makes the process of securing decisions more user-friendly

HBF has been involved in the preparation of the document and has endorsed it, along with the British Property Federation and British Chambers of Commerce.

CBI is now a major force for change in the planning system. The paper is intended to influence the forthcoming Government Green Paper on planning reform (see HBF website news items: the planning system Government states its intentions and Government Planning Reforms HBF sets its agenda)
