Successful operation of the planning system
will only be achieved if those involved: planning authorities, agencies and consultees, applicants,communities, representative organisations, public
bodies, the Government and the general public, commit themselves to engaging as constructively

Faster: Design-led, form based approaches are suited to collaborative processes
Better: Enables deeper & simultaneous exploration of complex issues
Cheaper: More accurate planning at an early stage creates more certainty
Convenient: More certainty creates realistic and SHARED expectations on delivery
