The North West Plan Partial Review
4NW is the Regional Leaders Forum for England's Northwest and is also the designated regional planning body for the Northwest. This means they have been asked by the government to prepare, monitor and review the Regional Spatial Strategy in partnership with others.
The Regional Spatial Strategy, or North West Plan, is a regional plan that has to be taken into account when decisions are being made about planning applications. It provides a spatial framework for development in the region and for other regional strategies, and it promotes the sustainable development of the North West.
Originally covering a wider range of topics, since Summer 2008, the Partial Review has focussed on three topics:
 |
Gypsy & Traveller Pitch Provision
|
 |
Travelling Showpeople Pitch Provision
|
 |
Regional Parking Standards
|
Getting involved in the Review Process.
