Simple terms explainer
Councils must prepare a Delivery Programme to go alongside their Local Development Plan. This programme sets out what actions are needed to make the plan happen - like building homes, roads, schools, and other infrastructure. It also explains who will do the work, when it will happen, and how it will be funded. The aim is to make sure the plan isn’t just a vision, but something that can actually be delivered in real life.
