Views sought on Jersey planning service reforms
BBCA public consultation has been launched into proposed reforms to Jersey's planning services.
The island's government has asked for people to share their views on changes earmarked for the system as part of plans to make it more efficient and responsive.
The government said the consultation, lasting for eight weeks, would explore potential changes to the legal framework of the current planning system.
Further details about how people can take part will be available online on the government's consultations website.
Officials said the consultation was setting out a number of possible options within three key themes - permitted development rights, the appeals system and how the Island Plan was developed and revised.
Environment Minister Deputy Steve Luce said the consultation was an opportunity to explore how the rules could be simplified and improve decision making.
"Islanders rightly expect a planning system that is clear, consistent and capable of responding to change," he said.
