In the wake of the public accounts committee inquiry into planning and the broken housing market, Sue Chadwick, strategic planning adviser at Pinsent Masons LLP joins us in the EG studio to discuss how the fourth industrial revolution holds the answers.
Chadwick discusses how accelerated planning for housing could work in the context of a digital revolution, the legal hurdles and opportunities around modern methods of construction, and what the government must do to adapt the planning regime so it is ready to reap the rewards of the fourth industrial revolution.
