Planning Agents Training Day

This week the Middle Level Commissioners held its first ever, half day seminar and workshop specifically aimed at agents acting on behalf of developers, who build within and close to the fenland area. The aim of the day was to provide background and information on the workings of the Middle Level and IDBs and covered the type of information they require in support of differing forms of consent application. The seminar element was followed by examples, where delegates were invited to play the role of the

consenting authority and consider what information might be needed by the authority for each example. Feedback from the morning was very positive and the event was oversubscribed.
