Amendments in place from today
Making the whole system better is the aim of a series of changes to how planning applications are submitted.
From today, minor change applications, flood risk assessments at the outset, and fees for requesting an inquiry will all be introduced.
It's hope this will make the process clearer and more accessible.
Environment, Food and Agriculture Minister Geoffrey Boot says these are the alterations the public has asked for:
DoI working on Island wide review of disc parking
New catering operator sought for northern hospitality business
£1.2m allocated for new Border Division on Island
Government monitoring proposed business rate cuts announced in England
