Islanders invited to have their say on planning service reform

Islanders invited to have their say on planning service reform
Share on LinkedInTwitterFacebookEmail

Islanders are being invited to take part in a public consultation on proposed reforms to Jersey’s planning service, which opened on 15th July and will run for eight weeks.

The consultation is part of the Minister for the Environment’s commitment to reform the Island’s planning system to ensure it is more efficient and responsive.

This priority is reflected in both the Government Plan 2025–2028 and the Council of Ministers’ Common Strategic Policy, which includes a pledge to “reform the planning service to enable sustainable development in Jersey.”

The consultation will explore potential changes to the legal framework that underpins elements of the current planning system. It sets out a number of possible reform options within three key themes:

  • Permitted Development Rights – considering whether a wider range of development could proceed without formal planning permission, helping to streamline the process for householders, businesses and developers.
  • Planning Appeals System – reviewing how decisions are challenged then how appeals are handled and determined.
  • Plan-Making Process – examining how the Island Plan is developed then revised to better reflect the needs of the community and future priorities.

The consultation will be staged to allow for both feedback from key stakeholders and from the public. The aim is to help shape a modernised planning system that supports Jersey’s growth and sustainability while remaining accessible to Islanders.

Deputy Steve Luce (pictured), Minister for the Environment said: “Islanders rightly expect a planning system that is clear, consistent and capable of responding to change.

“This consultation is an opportunity to explore how we can simplify the rules, improve decision making and create a service that better meets the needs of Islanders now and in the future.

“I encourage everyone with an interest in how our Island develops to share their views and help us shape a better planning system for Jersey.”
