In this episode of the Part3 With Me podcast, Maria Skoutari discusses the latest updates to Permitted Development Rights, specifically focusing on Class Q, Class R, and Part 6, which took effect on May 21st, 2024. The updates aim to promote the use of permitted development rights by reducing time and cost burdens. Key changes include increased allowances for Class Q applications, such as a maximum of 10 dwellings or 1000m2 of floor space, and the ability to add single-story rear extensions. Class R updates involve widening rights to include any buildings in rural use, increasing the floor area for change of use to 1000m2, and permitting a wider range of uses, including general industrial purposes. Part 6 updates include changes to ground area coverage for agricultural units, depending on their size, and the removal of the ability to erect buildings near scheduled monuments, with a 12-month grace period for developments permitted before the changes.
