We intend to publish the standards in 2019 and incorporate them into planning guidance so that councils can use them when making planning decisions across the country - including in the south east.<\/p> Our revised planning rule book<\/a> sets out how new development should happen in right places across the country including in the south east, through:<\/p> In September 2017, the Government created the \u2018Parks Action Group\u2019 comprising of experts from across the parks, heritage and the leisure sector and invested £500,000 to support the development of initiatives to identify solutions for safeguarding our parks and green spaces, to ensure they have long and sustainable futures.<\/p> The group has been working collaboratively across key priorities \u2013 including assessing quality standards and sharing good practice. We are currently developing a programme of work aimed at transforming the way in which green spaces are developed, managed and sustained. <\/p>"}
