On the 11th May 2017 this RTPI NI conference took the opportunity to consider the Local Development Plan system and how it is progressing two years into the newly reformed planning structure.
The conference, attended by over 70 delegates, was held in the stunning setting of Hill of the O'Neill, Ranfurly House Arts & Visitors Centre, Dungannon. The full day event considered a review of the process, provided an update from a range of local councils and looked at best practice and lessons learned from elsewhere.
Local council officers provided an overview of their LDP's with a private and legal consideration around the issue of robustness from practices in Belfast and beyound.
