Duplication from obfuscation

Duplication from obfuscation - 2003 - Estates Gazette (0309) 1 March 2003, 187(1) .

Looks at government proposals to abolish twin tracking or duplicate planning applications. Clause 41 of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Bill enables councils to decline overlapping applications in situations where the development and the land referred to are the same or mostly the same as those contained in a previously submitted application. Argues that twin tracking was a reaction to a complex, slow and inefficient planning system and that if government tackled these issues the need to twin track would not arise.
