Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what estimate he has made of the average time it takes to complete a new Neighbourhood Plan.
The time taken to produce a neighbourhood plan will depend on its complexity and the resources available within a community. We do not formally monitor the production of neighbourhood plans. We have introduced reforms since October 2016 to speed up the stages of neighbourhood plan-making.
