New guidance has been issued by the DCLG to reflect changes in conservation area (CA) legislation; ‘the conservation areas direction 2015’ and the ‘arrangements for handling heritage applications direction’.
IHBC Policy Secretary David Kincaid said: ‘The direction simply ties up a loose end as the 2001 circular about demolition in CA’s has been revoked and this direction squares the circle and reinstates the same criteria as before.’
