Details

The Planning and Infrastructure Bill aims to speed up and streamline the delivery of new homes and critical infrastructure.

The Regulatory Policy Committee (RPC) gave a ‘green’ rating to the impact assessment for the bill on 30 April 2025. This means that we considered the impact assessment to be fit for purpose based on our scrutiny of the evidence and analysis supporting the case for why regulation is necessary. 

The RPC’s opinion refers to the evidence and analysis presented in the impact assessment, not the policy itself.
