520 _aConsiders the issue of Crown immunity from planning control and argues for reform to the current system. Proposals to abolish Crown immunity were announced 10 years ago but have not been introduced to parliament. Therefore the general principle remains that development on Crown land, by or on behalf of the Crown, requires no planning permission or consent. Looks at the scope of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 s299 in relation to land disposal and examines the informal consultation procedure with local planning authorities (LPAs) set out in DoE Circular 18/84. Argues that the increasing use of PFIs and PPPs further weakens the justification for Crown immunity and concludes that all government projects should be subject to the standard planning process.
