Planning Enforcement and Caravans - Ivy Legal

Join us for our 1 day virtual workshop dealing with the Planning Enforcement and caravans.

Gain the confidence and expertise to handle one of the most challenging areas of planning enforcement: caravans.  This practical, day-long course provides a comprehensive look at the legal definition of a caravan and the planning implications surrounding the use of land as a caravan site.  Drawing on real-world enforcement cases, the session explores key issues such as what differentiates a caravan and a building, lawful uses, permitted development rights and the relationship between the Planning and Caravan Sites Acts.

Delegates will leave with a better understanding of how to investigate and manage caravan-related breaches effectively, from initial complaint to appeal and beyond.

Designed specifically for planning enforcement officers, legal practitioners, and planners, this course blends legislative analysis with hands-on problem-solving. You’ll examine relevant sections of the Caravan Sites and Control of Development Act 1960, the Caravan Sites Act 1968, and the Town and Country Planning Act 1990, alongside recent case law and tribunal decisions. Whether you’re dealing with an unauthorised caravan in the woods, a holiday park or a traveller site, this training will equip you with the tools to make sound, defensible decisions in this complex area of planning enforcement.

Cost:  £ 200 plus VAT per delegate
