Local Registers of Brownfield Land: Advice to Local Authorities

Descriptions

DCLG requires assistance and expertise to develop and quality assure appropriate guidance and standards for Local Authorities to prepare and release their local brownfield land registers in fully open, accessible and standardised forms. This will include communications and engagement with Local Authorities via workshops in separate geographic locations. Specific objectives are to assist DCLG to: •Develop, quality-assure and publish technical guidance and national data standards. •Design, organise and facilitate 3 workshops to be held in June/July to promote the guidance/national data standard and address questions from authorities. •Capture feedback and key issues arising from the workshops for DCLG to disseminate separately. A memorandum of understanding has therefore been agreed with Tameside Metropolitan Borough Council.
