Implementation Plan
Demonstrating delivery is a key focus of current planning practice and PPS11 (Regional Spatial Strategies) requires the Regional Planning Body to adopt a strengthened focus on implementation when preparing the Regional Spatial Strategy (RSS).
The Yorkshire and Humber Assembly developed an Implementation Action Plan for the RSS, which will look more specifically at questions such as what will be done, when, how much, and resource allocation - in terms of delivering the Plan policies. LGYH is taking forward this work and will ensure that the Action Plan will be updated annually and will be closely related to the Annual Monitoring Report. Key messages arising from the Annual Monitoring Report would provide critical input into the Implementation Action Plan. Together, the Action Plan and Annual Monitoring Report will provide intelligence on how effectively the Plan's strategy and policies are being delivered and, if necessary, what more needs to be done to achieve appropriate change on the ground.
Specific Implementation Guides are also being prepared for particular Plan policies. These will provide further information/guidance on the Plan?s implementation and, where appropriate, draw in examples of good practice. The following priority areas will be covered by these guides:
- Flooding
- Biodiversity
- Settlements
- Microgeneration
- Heritage/Landscape
- Affordable Housing
- Housing Mix
- Plan Monitor Manage for Housing

NEW EVENT: Sustainable Economic Growth, Regeneration and Local Economic Assessments (LEAs)
Local government in Yorkshire and Humber needs to explore how we can work innovatively and build capacity to conduct robust and meaningful LEAs, which are also rooted in “real-life” economic geographies.
This workshop is intended to be the first of a series that will take place in the course of conducting LEAs during 2010, to share expertise and approaches and build capacity.
