The Plan-Making programme sets out what planning policy documents the Council will produce, their scope and the timetable for their production. The Programme needs to be updated in light of recent events and any decisions made in relation to the Development Strategy (also being considered at this meeting).

1.      That the preparation of the three Local Plans (Development Strategy, Gypsy and Traveller Local Plan and Allocations Local Plan) and other associated documents be supported.

2.      That the programme of plan-making, attached at Appendix A to the report, that sets out the formal Local Development Scheme for the whole of Central Bedfordshire be approved.
