    November 2024 – The production of materials for the next round of consultations on the LDP is beind schedule. The latest estimate we have is for consultation to open in January 2025 but the Web Team will continue to monitor for updates.

    June 2024 – We are led to believe that the next round of consultations on the Local Development Plan will being in September 2024 but still have not had details of what nature this consultation will have or exactly when it will be launched.

    August 2023 – The draft strategy for Cardiff’s Revised Local Development Plan is out for consultation. Make your views heard on this stage by 5 October 2023. Read more in our article on the LDP or visit the official consultation page at https://cardiffldp.consultation.ai/

It will also identify those Key Policies which will inform the preparation of a Deposit Plan. The Preferred Strategy will now be considered by Cabinet and Council later than anticipated in 2023, with consultation likely to be in the Summer of 2023.

    August 2022 – Due to a delay in the release of Census data required as part of the basis for the LDP, the process of preparing the Revised LDP is running behind the originally published schedule.
