Hotels: Planning Permission
- Question
-
To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether they have issued guidelines to those local authorities that are able to impose local occupancy conditions on grants of planning permission, relating to the application of local occupancy conditions in cases where private residences which previously had planning permission to operate as guest houses now wish to reapply for planning permission to become guest houses again.
- Answer
-
The National Planning Policy Framework and guidance on use of planning conditions sets out clearly the circumstances and way in which the Government considers planning conditions should be used.
Local authorities are best placed to decide whether to impose particular types of conditions, such as local occupancy conditions, taking into account local housing needs and other relevant considerations. Use of such conditions should be regularly reviewed in the light of changing circumstances.
