Overview

The Scottish Government is carrying out a review of permitted development rights (PDR) as part of our wider planning reform programme. The PDR review is being taken forward in phases, with each phase focussing on specific development types.

Consultation and feedback is an essential part of the policy making process.  Comments will inform the development of final proposals, which will be brought into force through regulations which the Scottish Government aims to lay in the Scottish Parliament later this year.
