About Development Briefs
Development Briefs form part of the Local Development Framework as Supplementary Planning Documents. Planning Policy Statment 12: Local Development Frameworks describes Development Briefs along with Supplementary Planning Documents in the following way:
Supplementary Planning Documents
Where prepared, supplementary planning documents should be included in the local development framework and will form part of the planning framework for the area. They will not be subject to independent examination and will not form part of the statutory development plan. However, they should be subjected to rigorous procedures of community involvement.
Supplementary planning documents may cover a range of issues, both thematic and site specific, which may expand policy or provide further detail to policies in a development plan document. They must not however, be used to allocate land. Supplementary planning documents may take the form of design guides, area development briefs, master plan or issue-based documents, which supplement policies in a development plan document. The following principles apply to a supplementary planning document:
i. it must be consistent with national and regional planning policies as well as the policies set out in the development plan documents contained in the local development framework;
ii. it must be clearly cross-referenced to the relevant development plan document policy which it supplements (or, before a relevant development plan document has been adopted, a saved policy);
iii. it must be reviewed on a regular basis alongside reviews of the development plan document policies to which it relates; and
iv. the process by which it has been prepared must be made clear and a statement of conformity with the statement of community involvement must be published with it.
Supplementary planning documents may contain policies which expands or supplements the policies in development plan documents. However, policies which should be included in a development plan document and subjected to proper independent scrutiny in accordance with the statutory procedures should not be set out in supplementary planning documents.'
