2024 saw a raft of new legislation and consultations published by the Cabinet Office which look to expand on what can be achieved under the Permitted Development Rights as well as some proposed strengthening of the legislation around Brownfield Developments with a number of changes to existing Permitted Development Rights (PDRs) coming into effect from 21 May 2024 in England and Wales.
Our panel of speakers will look at what these changes are and the impact of the new legislation.
Speakers are:
Jacqueline Jackson, Planning Director - Marrons
Shruti Trivedi, Managing Director - Devello
Helen Knott, Director - nineteen47
Lee Ward, Director - Hayward Architects
We are all well aware that the climate is changing and that human activity is the primary factor in the acceleration of climate change over the past century.
We are facing significant impacts—from more frequent and severe weather, ocean warming and acidification, extended periods of drought and extreme temperatures, and other potentially disastrous effects of climate change - all of which impact on the property and construction industry. The question is how we prepare for, recover from, and adapt to these impacts.
ProCon has brought together a panel of speakers to look at the over arching challenges that the property and construction industries face, to look at how to navigate the Carbon Code and with a particular focus on the issues of overheating and surface water flooding.
Our speakers are:
Mark Wakeford - Chairman, National Federation of Builders
Laura Mayhew-Manchon - Head of Sustainability, NTU
Jason Redfearn - Managing Director, Focus Consulting
Tony Goddard - Director, BSP Consulting
