Regina (Cala Homes (South) Ltd v Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government (No 2) [2011] EWCA Civ 639; [2011] WLR (D) 187

“The fact that the government was going ahead with the abolition of regional planning strategies in England was a legitimate material consideration for those determining planning applications and appeals even though the existing statutory framework required that each region should have a regional strategy.”

R (Cala Homes (South) Ltd) (No 2) v Secretary Of State for Communities and Local Government [2011] EWHC 97 (Admin); [2011] WLR (D) 39

“A stated intention by the Government to abolish regional strategies and to promote legislation for that purpose was capable in law of constituting, for the purposes of section 70(2) of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990, a ‘material consideration’ to which planning authorities could have taken regard in making determinations of applications for planning permission. The Secretary of State’s announced intention to abolish regional strategies did not compromise the duty of local planning authorities under section 19 of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 (as amended) to have regard to regional strategies when preparing a development plan or any other local development document.”
