The letters state:
The Minister of State for Housing and Planning has decided to not designate any of the 10 local planning authorities previously at risk of designation as a result of improvement in performance in recent quarters to June 2023.
Should a local planning authority not continue to demonstrate good performance in determining non-major applications at a level above the required threshold, the local planning may be designated at a point in the future.
The letters follows previous correspondence of 12 April 2023 from the Secretary of State for Levelling Up Housing and Communities Michael Gove.
