Consultations

From time to time Planning & Building Control undertake consultation on various documents. 

The purpose of consultation is to gather views and comment so that issues are decided, as far as possible, on consideration of all the relevant information and arguments. It informs the decision-making process, raising points to be taken into account that might otherwise have been overlooked. To bring greater clarity and consistency to its use of public consultation, the Isle of Man Government has introduced a Code of Practice on Consultations.

Current Consultations

The Planning Policy Team have four ongoing projects, for more information on each please follow the links below:
