answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/05/2018 answer text <p>The department does not hold data on the number of planning officers who are currently employed, on either full-time or part-time bases. It therefore has no reliable evidence base from which to estimate the extra number needed for building an average of 300,000 homes in England per year.</p><p>The department has supported local planning authorities by introducing a 20 per cent increase in planning application fees and providing £ 15.8 million through the Planning Delivery Fund in order to ensure that local planning authorities have the resources and capacity they need.</p><p>It also provides support for the Royal Town Planning Institute Future Planners bursary scheme, which has run since 2015/16 and supports students on accredited postgraduate conversion degrees to pursue a career in planning. The department recently announced its continuing financial support for the scheme over the next three financial years, 2017/18 to 2019/20.</p> answering member printed Lord Bourne of Aberystwyth question first answered 02/05/2018 15:22:03 answering member 4282 label Biography information for Lord Bourne of Aberystwyth
