Government is introducing a number of planning system changes, including legislation and guidance, as a result of COVID-19. The aim is the support business and developers through the current situation and beyond. And, there are potentially more changes on the way as part of the wider COVID-19 recovery strategy.

This two-part webinar delves into the detail of the planning system changes in the context of any impact on the historic environment.

In Part 1, each speaker will set out their interpretation of what the impacts may be. We will hear from a leading historic environment professional body, a major heritage conservation charity and custodian of historic assets, and from an architect and developer with wide-ranging experience of working on projects involving historic buildings and sites.

In Part 2, the speakers will discuss what protections remain in place, any unintended consequences for the historic environment and the strategies and approaches needed to ensure protections, whilst supporting the overall goal.
