Local Development Plan Review
Overview and Timetable
The Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act, 2004, requires every Local Planning Authority to review its Local Development Plan (LDP) on a regular basis.
Pembrokeshire County Council commenced review of its LDP on the 5th May 2017.
The area covered by the Pembrokeshire County Council Replacement Plan is the area of Pembrokeshire, excepting National Park locations.
The purpose of review is to ensure that the LDP stays up-to-date. Review provides the opportunity to make changes to the Plan, if these are required.
