The order of change is nigh - 2001 - Planning (for the Natural and Built Environment) 21 September 2001, 8(1) .

The Use Classes Order (UCO) was last revised in 1987. The different classes of use have remained largely untouched since then despite the development of the economy, the emergence of new activities and uses, and changes in taste. The recent boom in new pub openings, and its less desirable side-effects, have made the case for change overwhelming. To alleviate these, and other, problems government commissioned Baker Associates to review possible changes to UCO. Discusses Baker Associates' findings, recommended changes, and proposed classes. "Review of the Use Classes Order and Part 4 of the GDPO (Temporary Uses)" is available from DTLR Sales, priced £28. Tel: 01709 891318.
