William Webster’s new planning law handbook attracts critical praise
5th July 2019
3PB Barristers William Webster’s new seminal guide for planning practitioners - “Planning Law: A Practitioner's Handbook” – published by leading UK law publishers Wildy, Simmonds and Hill, has attracted critical praise from planning barrister Dr Ashley Bowes, Editor of the Journal of Planning & Environment Law, in Thomson Reuters’ Book Reviews.
The book undoubtedly provides the busy planning professional with answers to day-to-day commonly encountered issues. Covering a broad range of topics, it also provides a helpful, detailed treatment of planning policy, as well as a commentary on associated areas of planning like village greens, assets of community value and public rights of way.
Dr Bowes confirms the lead judge of the Planning Court, The Right Honourable Lord Justice Lindblom’s foreword: the book is “thoughtful, lucid and comprehensive”. Dr Bowes would recommend it to any practitioner’s library. Click here to view the full review.
