11 Examination - planning inspector view

About this prototype

When a Planning Inspector is examining a local plan, they need to see all of the information and data that has gone into making a policy to understand how well that policy is addressing needs and how well it is supported by evidence. Currently, this information can be stored across multiple documents, websites and spreadsheets. It can be a time consuming process.

What we wanted to learn

This prototype tests ideas to address two user needs:

  • As a planning inspector I need to quickly understand how policies were formed so that I can quickly start to understand the key issues to surface during Examination hearings

    As a planning inspector I need to see the related evidence, representations and requirements so that I can assess whether a policy is sound

These relate to the Planning Inspector scenarios we’ve identified during Discovery.
