England Local Plan Tracker
Review adopted-plan records and emerging or replacement Local Plan stages across England. Search by council, region or recorded stage, then follow the direct council source for the latest consultation documents, timetables, proposed allocations, submission information and examination updates.
The tracker is designed as a monitoring tool. It helps landowners, farmers, developers and site promoters identify where a council sits in the plan-making process and decide which official documents should be checked next. The stage recorded here should be treated as a starting point rather than a substitute for the council's live planning pages.
Using the tracker
Use the Local Plan stage to decide what to check next
A Local Plan is the principal planning policy document prepared by a Local Planning Authority. It sets out the spatial strategy for an area, the policies used to determine planning applications and, where relevant, the sites proposed for housing, employment and other forms of development.
For a landowner, the important question is not simply whether a council has a Local Plan. It is whether the existing plan is still the operative adopted position, whether a replacement plan is being prepared and what stage that replacement has reached. Those distinctions can affect the timing of Calls for Sites, land availability assessments, proposed allocations, representations and later examination work.
This tracker separates the adopted-plan position from the recorded emerging or replacement-plan stage. That makes it easier to see the policy position that currently applies alongside the plan-making process that may change it. Once you find the relevant authority, use the official council source and the dated verification column to confirm the latest documents and dates.
Local Plan progress across England
Search the England Local Plan Tracker
Search all 308 Local Planning Authority entries in the tracker. The adopted-plan position is shown separately from any suitable authority-wide emerging or replacement-plan record. Every row carries its own verification date and links to an official council planning source.
How this tracker is sourced
Every authority row was structurally revalidated on 10 August 2026 against the government Planning Data Local Plan and Local Planning Authority datasets and the Planning Inspectorate strategic-plan progress table. Authorities with identified changes, active consultations, recent submissions or recent adoptions were checked against direct council sources, with priority updates rechecked through 25 August 2026. Adopted plans are separated from emerging or replacement plans. The verification column records the source basis and date for each row. Council pages remain the definitive source for changes after the recorded verification date.

Always check the council source
A Local Plan can move between consultation, submission, examination and adoption stages after the tracker data has been refreshed. A council may also publish a timetable, pause work, revise documents or change the route being followed. Use the tracker to find the authority and recorded stage, then use the official source for the current position.
Landowner review
Could an emerging Local Plan affect your land?
If your council is preparing a replacement plan, the recorded stage can help identify what should be checked next: the latest land availability evidence, proposed site allocations, consultation documents, settlement strategy and any current Call for Sites.
From tracker entry to planning action
What to do after finding your council
The tracker gives you the recorded plan position. The next step is to connect that stage to the documents and evidence that affect the land itself.
2
Check the site allocation position
Search the emerging plan, policies map, site schedules and supporting evidence to see whether the land is allocated, omitted, rejected, reduced or affected by a strategic policy designation.
Local Plan Allocation Guide3
Find the land availability evidence
Check whether the site appears in the latest HELAA, SHLAA or equivalent assessment and review the boundary, capacity, suitability findings and identified constraints.
HELAA / SHLAA Guide4
Identify the next opportunity
Depending on the stage, the next route may be a Call for Sites, an evidence update, a consultation representation or continued monitoring until the council publishes its next formal document.
Call for Sites TrackerReading the recorded stage
What the main Local Plan stages mean when using the tracker
Stage labels are useful for navigation, but they do not tell the whole story. Councils use different document names and can publish additional consultations or evidence between formal milestones.
Early work, scoping or preparation
An authority may be establishing its timetable, evidence requirements and broad strategy. For a landowner, this can be the stage to watch for new Calls for Sites, updated HELAA work and consultation on the issues the replacement plan will need to address.
HELAA / SHLAA TrackerRegulation 18 or draft-plan stage
The council may be consulting on issues, options, preferred approaches, a draft strategy or possible sites. The precise document matters. Check whether the land appears in the evidence base and whether the consultation invites comments on site choices, settlement growth or policy options.
Planning Policy GuideRegulation 19 or proposed submission
This is a later stage in the preparation of the plan. The key task is to read the proposed submission document, policies map and supporting evidence carefully and check the council's representation arrangements rather than assuming an earlier site position remains unchanged.
Submitted or examination
Once a plan has moved into submission or examination, the focus shifts to the submitted evidence and the examination process. The council source may contain inspector correspondence, hearing material, proposed modifications and updated timetables.
Adopted plan position
The adopted plan remains important because it forms part of the current policy framework. A new emerging plan does not simply erase that existing position. The tracker therefore keeps adopted and emerging information in separate columns.
No emerging stage recorded
This wording means that the tracker source set does not classify a suitable current authority-wide emerging-plan stage. It should not be read as confirmation that the authority is undertaking no planning-policy work. Open the council source and check for reviews, timetables, consultations or announcements.
Site-specific checks
A Local Plan stage only becomes useful when it is connected to your land
Once you know the authority's stage, review the issues that determine whether a particular site has a credible role in the emerging strategy.
Settlement relationship
Check how the emerging spatial strategy treats the nearest settlement, whether boundaries are changing and whether growth is being directed towards or away from the location.
Settlement Boundaries GuideAccess and highways
A site can have a favourable policy location but still require a credible access solution. Check whether the evidence base identifies highway constraints, junction requirements or strategic transport dependencies.
Access and Highways GuideFlood risk and drainage
Review the council's evidence and site assessment for flood zones, surface-water risk and drainage requirements that may affect the developable area or the way a site is compared with alternatives.
Flood Risk and Drainage GuideLandscape and ecology
Check whether landscape sensitivity, habitats, designated sites, trees or hedgerows are relied upon in the site-selection evidence and whether the assessment reflects the actual site boundary and development concept.
Heritage
Listed buildings, conservation areas, scheduled monuments and their settings can materially affect site capacity and selection. Check how the evidence describes the relationship rather than relying only on the presence of a designation.
Heritage GuideInfrastructure and deliverability
Look for infrastructure requirements, utility constraints, phasing assumptions and delivery dependencies. These can influence whether a site is treated as available and achievable within the plan period.
Utilities and Infrastructure GuideDo not rely on the stage label alone
The Local Plan position can change before the tracker is refreshed
Consultations can close, plans can be submitted, examinations can progress and councils can publish revised timetables or new evidence. Use the tracker to locate the authority and understand the recorded position, then check the linked council source before deciding whether a representation, site submission or other action is required.
Two different planning positions
Why the tracker shows adopted and emerging plans separately
The adopted plan
The adopted plan records the existing strategic policy position. It may contain settlement boundaries, site allocations, development management policies and other designations that remain relevant to planning decisions while a replacement plan is being prepared.
A landowner should therefore understand the current adopted position before focusing on the emerging plan. A site may already have a policy designation, sit outside a settlement boundary or be affected by an existing allocation or constraint that the replacement plan is reconsidering.
The emerging or replacement plan
The emerging plan indicates how the council may change its strategy for future growth. It can introduce new settlement options, revise boundaries, identify possible development locations and update the evidence used to compare sites.
The weight and significance of an emerging document will depend on its actual stage and content. The tracker therefore records the stage separately and directs the user to the live council source rather than treating every emerging plan as if it had the same status.
Tracker methodology
How to interpret the tracker data
The page is designed to be useful without presenting uncertain information as fact.
Adopted and emerging records are separated
An adopted document and a replacement plan serve different purposes. Showing them independently makes the tracker easier to read and reduces the risk of confusing the current policy position with future plan-making.
Unclassified stages remain unclassified
Where the source set identifies an emerging plan but does not support a specific formal stage, the tracker says that the stage is not classified rather than assigning a stage by inference.
No recorded stage is not the same as no activity
A council may be undertaking evidence work, preparing a timetable or publishing material that is not yet represented by a suitable authority-wide stage in the tracker source set.
Council sources remain definitive
The direct planning link is included so users can verify the current position. This is particularly important around consultation closing dates, submission, examination updates and adoption.
August 2026 National Policy
Using the England Local Plan Tracker After the August 2026 NPPF
The tracker records council activity, but the policy framework applying to a particular plan or decision now depends on whether the authority is using the new plan-making system or a legacy transitional route.
Decision-Making Changed on 17 August 2026
The new national decision-making policies are material considerations from publication. Applications should therefore be reviewed against the August 2026 framework even where the adopted Local Plan predates it, subject to the weight rules in Annex A.
Plan-Making Can Follow Two Routes
Plans prepared under the 2026 regulations and spatial development strategies use the new framework. Other plans can remain under the December 2024 framework and its transition rules. The tracker stage should therefore be read with the council’s published legal route.
Consultation Labels Are Not Enough
Regulation 18, Regulation 19, gateway and examination terminology can identify different systems. Open the council documents and confirm the statutory basis, policy version and deadline before submitting land or making a representation.
Tracker Entries Can Become Out of Date
Council timetables, evidence documents and site-assessment positions can change between tracker updates. Verify the authority page and consultation documents before relying on a date or stage for a submission.
Use the tracker to identify the council and next document to inspect, then confirm the live position directly. The August 2026 NPPF may create a fresh site-assessment opportunity, but the applicable plan system and local evidence still determine the correct action.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this tracker show every Local Planning Authority in England?
The supplied tracker contains 308 Local Planning Authority entries. It separates the adopted-plan position from any recorded authority-wide emerging or replacement-plan stage and provides a planning source for each row.
What does Regulation 18 mean in the tracker?
It identifies an early or draft plan-making stage recorded for the authority. Open the council source to identify the actual consultation document, current dates and whether the council is seeking comments on strategy, sites or policies.
What does Regulation 19 mean?
It identifies a proposed-submission stage recorded for the authority. This is a later formal point in plan preparation, so check the live council page for the representation arrangements and the exact documents being consulted upon.
What does “No emerging stage recorded” mean?
It means the tracker source set does not classify a suitable current authority-wide emerging-plan stage. It does not necessarily mean that the council is doing no plan-making work, so the linked planning source should still be checked.
Does a Local Plan allocation give planning permission?
No. Allocation can provide important planning support for a development principle, but a separate planning application and detailed consideration of access, design, infrastructure, environmental effects and other matters are normally still required.
Why are adopted and emerging plans shown separately?
The adopted plan remains part of the current policy position, while an emerging plan indicates how that position may change. Combining them into one label could make it harder to understand which document currently applies and which is still being prepared.
Should I rely only on the stage shown here?
No. The tracker is a monitoring aid. Always open the council source because consultations, submissions, examination updates and adoptions can occur after the underlying data has been refreshed.
Can Value My Land review how a Local Plan affects my site?
Yes. We can review the current and emerging plan position, identify whether the land appears in site-selection or land availability evidence and consider whether a Call for Sites submission, consultation representation or continued promotion may be appropriate.
