This article contributes to the history of women in planning and to an understanding of the issues facing the advancement of women planners in the workplace during the 1990s in the UK. The main part of the article revisits the contributions made by participants during the 1996 National Women’s Planning Conference in Leeds, UK, entitled Women Planners into the 21st Century. The event attracted delegates from around the UK and during the conference a series of activities enabled participants to record their experiences. This article takes a fresh look at this material using a lens from a similar conference held at Leeds Beckett University in 2019. The rapid thematic analysis found that the issues facing women in the 1990s in the UK were similar to those facing women planners in the US, Canada and Australia. The expectations and barriers faced by women planners in 1996 varied depending on career life stages and whether or not women had children, were single parents or were caring for a child who was physically or mentally disabled. A key conclusion is that structural and cultural barriers still predominate in organisations. The implications for professional bodies such as the RTPI are that they must do more to support women and men to bring about long-lasting change.

The regulation of housing quality has a long history in England. As the state itself increasingly became a housing developer in the twentieth century, design standards were subject to self-regulation. Through this, the idea that housing quality includes minimum dwelling sizes - space standards - has entered public consciousness. The 2010-2015 coalition government introduced suggested space standards through planning control, but also extended the range of ‘permitted development’ - a form of deregulation - where space standards could not be applied. In this paper we explore the history of space standards in England and what these tell us about planning regulation.

COVID-19 has had a traumatic effect on both the way people live and work in their everyday lives, and the way places function. The rapid transformation of employment practices, including the necessity to stay at home for lockdown periods, has given rise to increased digitisation and technological use to enable people to continue to work and to remain in contact with friends and colleagues. Digital planning, and the enhancement of digital citizen engagement, has been one area that has started to inform local government’s online activity. This is coincidental to the UK government’s interest in transforming planning into a digital and map-based service. This article examines digital planning activity in English local planning authorities since COVID-19 hit the UK, reporting on two interrelated research studies that analysed statements of community involvement and planners’ perceptions of digital planning activity. The article shows that COVID-19 has certainly accelerated the adoption and deployment of digital planning, but it is an activity that has been developing in local planning incrementally for more than two decades.

A connection between specific aspects of mapping evidence prepared in advance of the Town and Country Planning Act of 1947 and the history of the plotlands provides opportunities for critical reflection. First, new mapping evidence demonstrates that the scope and distribution of plotland places were historically of far greater significance than previously thought or documented both in conventional planning theory and in existing plotland-focused research. Second, the sociopolitical agenda which accompanied the production and representation of mapping evidence during the 1930 and 1940s offers opportunity for critical reflection on the consequences and responsibilities of rethinking planning regulations.

This paper examines the practices of localism that are emerging in local planning authorities’ (LPAs) responses to neighbourhood planning (NP) in England. It argues that a lack of coherence within the localism agenda has enabled LPAs to rearticulate and resignify key concepts, with three discernible practices of localism and responses to NP emerging: the deflective, the reactive and the integrative. The LPAs have a critical role within the process and employ a range of technologies of government to govern the conduct of groups shaped largely around the role afforded to NP within their local plan.

While there has been an increasing recognition of the health impacts of air pollution assessment of air quality and health impacts is rarely adequately reviewed in planning decisions. Planning decisions are generally based on meeting national annual average air quality targets despite substantial evidence that levels below these are harmful to health and references to population health impacts in the UK National Planning Policy Framework and Environmental Assessment Guidance for planning. This paper reviews the current framework and discusses how air quality has been taken into consideration in some recent planning decisions and legal appeals. Problems in assessing air quality in planning decisions and the increasing evidence on the long and short-term impacts of poor air quality are highlighted. The paper concludes by arguing that health impacts should be more clearly addressed when considering air quality assessment setting out some potential approaches to how this could be incorporated in the planning process.

Integral urban regeneration exemplifies complex urban policies that combine goals across different policy sectors, involving public and non-public actors, and simultaneous implementation in different territories. Their policy design is an essential element in acquiring knowledge about their achievements. Nevertheless, this aspect has received less attention than their implementation or impact. This article introduces a proposal combining policy evaluability and plan quality evaluation approaches. We suggest two main dimensions (readiness and internal consistency) and indices to measure them, providing information to assess plans according to different evaluative aims. The designs of seventy-eight local plans for a southern Spanish region are studied.
