The exercise of permitted development rights in England since 2010 [electronic resource]

The exercise of permitted development rights in England since 2010 [electronic resource] - London RICS 2018 - RICS Research .

Presents an analysis of the exercise of permitted development (PD) rights in England since 2010 and an initial estimate of the direct financial costs and benefits of PD to the public sector. By undertaking a combined research approach involving mapping changes to the residential housing supply across England and conducting a cost-benefit analysis of PD for local authorities, the research highlights a number of interesting findings, such as the bulk of additional dwellings that result from the exercise of PD rights take the form of small scale conversions from business uses; large conversion scheme account for the largest element of the direct financial costs of PD to public authorities; and the extension of PD rights facilitates long term structural change in England?s built environment.
