Land Use United Kingdom
The Governance of Land Use United Kingdom The planning system Levels of government and their responsibilities The United Kingdom is a unitary state with three devolved governments in Northern Ireland, Wales and Scotland, respectively. At the local level, 389 local authorities with varying status and powers exist. Among them are 27 county councils, which exist in parts of England and are strictly speaking an intermediate level of government because they operate above other local authorities, except where they are unitary authorities. The UK government is responsible for allocating funds to local authorities and for preparing the National Planning Policy Framework in England. It can also facilitate important infrastructure projects through specific legislation or by placing them under direct ministerial control. The Welsh and Scottish governments have been granted far reaching powers regarding land-use policies. They enact national spatial planning frameworks that structure the planning system in their territories. The Scottish government also prepares a Scottish Land Use Strategy, the only such document in the United Kingdom. Furthermore, both governments decide about appeals against local planning decisions and have the power to fast track infrastructure project in their territories. Local authorities are responsible for local land-use planning and public housing. They also decide on planning applications. Some local authorities have contracted land-use planning out to the private sector. County councils as an intermediate level of government are – where they exist – responsible for strategic planning and for planning applications related to waste disposal sites, mineral extraction and county owned land. In London, the Greater London Authority has a distinct legal status as a metropolitan authority and is among other issues responsible for transport and for the preparation of the London Plan, a strategic plan that provides binding guidelines to local authorities in the greater London area.

A Mayor and Assembly for London: 10 Years On
2 July 2010 A Mayor and Assembly for London: 10 years on Tony Travers and Christine Whitehead A brief history… It is 10 years since the Greater London Authority was created as a metropolitan or regional tier of government for London. There have been five different arrangements of ‘upper tier’ government in the capital since the Metropolitan Board of Works (MBW) was created in 1855 to build infrastructure. The MBW was succeeded by the London County Council (LCC), a powerful authority for the inner part of the contemporary city. Within this area 28 metropolitan boroughs and the City of London delivered ‘local’ services. Two factors were particularly important in influencing the progress of London’s government. First, the physical expansion of the city created demands for provision across a wider area than the City of London’s original and long-evolved ‘square mile’. The Metropolitan Police Service was created by the government in 1829 to meet the law and order requirements of a fast-growing city. The squalor and chaos of the London of the 1850s prompted Parliament to legislate for London’s first-ever metropolitan government, an indirectly-elected entity. Further physical expansion between the end of the 19 th century and 1939 generated a debate about the need for a ‘Greater London’ government 1. The second important factor in determining the kinds of institutions that emerged was the local power and parochialism of both the City of London and the parish-based or ad hoc bodies that developed to deliver services in the absence of a city-wide government.

THE PLANNING GAME-ENGLISH STYLE OR THE GREATER LONDON DEVELOPMENT PLAN VICTOR MOORE* Anglophiles will be aware that since the statute Quia Emptores in the year 1290, no single piece of legislation has made as great an im- pact on English land law as that brought about by the Town and Country Planning Act of 1947.1 The lynchpin of that legislation, which gave to England its first comprehensive statutory machinery for controlling land use, was that no landowner could develop his land without first obtaining permission from the local planning authority.2 The content of the development plan which local plan- ning authorities were required to prepare for their areas determined whether permission would be granted, or granted subject to condi- tions, or whether the planning authority would begin cease and desist proceedings if development commenced without permission.' The history of these development plans is well known.
