This document had the immediate effect of replacing various documents including, amongst other documents, PPS1, PPS3, PPS4, PPS5, PPS12, PPG13, PPG17 and Circular 05/2005: Planning Obligations. 6.2 The NPPF sets out the Government’s planning policies for England and how these are expected to be applied. It reinforces the Development Plan led system and does not change the statutory status of the development plan as the starting point for decision making. The NPPF states that the National Planning Policy Framework must be taken into account in the preparation of local and neighbourhood plans, and is a material consideration in planning decisions. Moreover, it sets out that in assessing and determining development proposals, local planning authorities should apply the presumption in favour of sustainable development. 6.3 The applicant’s planning consultants have submitted a statement confirming how this application meets the aspirations of the NPPF. The London Plan 2011 6.4 The London Plan was published in July 2011 and replaces the previous versions which were adopted in February 2004 and updated in February 2008.

It forms part of the development plan for Greater London. All Borough plan policies are required to be in general conformity with the London Plan policies 6.6 The key policies of the plan considered relevant in this case are: Policy 1.1 Policy 2.9 Policy 2.10 Policy 2.11 Policy 2.12 Policy 2.13 Delivering the strategic vision and objectives for London Inner London Central Activities Zone – strategic priorities Central Activities Zone – strategic functions Central Activities Zone – predominantly local activities Opportunity areas and intensification areas
