"The Planning and Infrastructure Bill has received Royal Assent and is now law, marking a major change to the UK's planning framework."
"For self-builders, the changes could make it easier to get permission, access land, and incorporate sustainable features into their projects."
"By reducing bureaucracy and legal hurdles, the law aims to make the process more predictable and efficient for individuals looking to build their own homes."
The Planning and Infrastructure Bill has received Royal Assent and become law, changing the UK's planning framework. The new law streamlines some planning procedures and reduces legal complexity that previously hindered individual projects. Self-builders should find it easier to obtain planning permission, secure access to land, and include sustainable features in their designs. Reduced bureaucracy and clearer rules aim to make the planning process more predictable and faster for individuals building their own homes. The reforms also intend to lower transactional costs and legal delays, encouraging more small-scale, low-carbon housing development across communities.
