Enabling Development - Conditions and Planning Agreements

In some instances, planning conditions attached to a permission will be sufficient to ensure that the public benefits to be derived from the Enabling Development are delivered, for example prior to completion or occupation of the Enabling Development. In other, more complex cases, and where there is a need to secure long-term management arrangements, a planning agreement as set out in Section 76 of the Planning Act (Northern Ireland) 2011 will be required. The pre-application process will assist in identifying which option is best suited to the particular proposal.
