The London PlanRelated publicationsPlease see separate pages for Supplementary Planning Guidance and Best Practice Guidance. National Planning Policy Requirements for a 15-year Housing Land Supply and Strategic Housing Market Assessments and the London Plan: Joint Statements March 2008 Planning Policy Statement 3 (Housing) has introduced national requirements
for Strategic Housing Market Assessment (SHMA) and Strategic Housing
Land Availability Assessments (SHLAA). The GLA, Government Office for
London and, for SHMA, London Councils, have worked together to produce
guidance for boroughs on addressing these requirements. Improving Londoners’ Access to Nature The London Plan (Consilidated with Alterations since 2004) states that boroughs should identify deficiency areas in access to nature and the opportunities for addressing them. This London Plan Implementation Report provides non-statutory advice that demonstrates how this policy aim can be achieved. It provides guidance on ways to improve access to nature and lists priority opportunities to address areas of deficiency. Improving Londoners’ Access to Nature PDF Review of the impact of the energy policies in the London Plan on applications referred to the Mayor (Phase 2) This study, carried out by London South Bank University, reviews the environmental impact, in terms of reduced energy use and carbon emissions, of the London Plan energy policies on applications referred to the Mayor. It also reviews the impact of the current assessment process and methodologies. The study shows that, in general, the Mayor’s policies have been highly successful in reducing expected energy consumption and CO2 emissions in new developments. There has been strong upward trend in cumulative CO2 savings representing around a 26 per cent saving of CO2 and with the average renewable energy contribution routinely exceeding 10 per cent after mid-2005.

The Study and its conclusions are those of the Consultants, Roger Tym and Partners. The study should be considered as a contribution to the debate on ‘Growth Potential’ in the London part of the Corridor but should not be considered as necessarily being endorsed by the commissioning partners. It will be considered by the GLA in the development of the Sub Regional Development Frameworks for North and East London. London Stansted Cambridge Corridor
PDF Comparison Goods Floorspace Need in London Comparison Goods Floorspace Need in London Industrial and warehouse land This study is designed to inform the way in which broad strategic policy is interpreted locally. It is a key input to the Mayor's Supplementary Planning Guidance (SPG) on Industrial Capacity and his forthcoming Sub Regional Development Frameworks and draft SPG on Housing Provision. It provides a detailed assessment of the sorts of firms which ocuppy industrial land and what their requirements may be in the future. Though conventional manufacturing is declining, there are a range of other occupiers, some of which have distinct land requirements.Warehouseing/logistics, traditionally one of the cinderella sectors of the London economy, is particularly important in this respect. The study confirms the 50 ha pa benchmark for monitoring long term, net release of industrial land. This was proposed at the London Plan Examination in Public. The study also confirms that within this overall reduction in industrial stock there is likely to be demand for re-development of some 50 ha pa to meet changing industrial needs. Industrial and warehouse land PDF Office Policy Review 2004 Prepared by a consortium of office specialists led by London Property Research, the 2004 Review charts the relationship between office demand and supply to the end of 2003. It flags the emergence of 'green shoots' in the market. It relates market sentiment and take up of new and second hand space to availability of new and second hand space and the various elements of the development pipeline. It then goes on to assess the longer term issues facing the market, especially the prospects for that in the suburbs. It also covers 'off-shoring', civil service decentralisation, mixed use development, changes of use and changes in the way in which office space is utilised. This edition of the Review is specially designed to inform preparation of the Sub Regional Development Frameworks.
