On 10 July 2014, my hon. Friend the former Parliamentary Under Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government (Nick Boles) amended for a period of 12 months the criteria for consideration of the recovery of planning appeals to include proposals for residential development over 10 units in areas where a qualifying body has submitted a neighbourhood plan proposal to the local planning authority or where a neighbourhood plan has been made (Official Report, Col 24-25WS); and I am now extending that period for a further 6 months from today.
