ADEPT is pleased to announce the rebranding and merger of the Sustainable Growth Board and Planning Working Group into a single, streamlined board: The Economy, Planning and Housing Board.
The new board will provide a space for Place directors, senior planners, economic development leads and housing directors to come together and tackle the big issues facing places across the country. Whether it is planning reform, housing delivery, or driving local economic resilience, the board will support members in navigating complex challenges and shaping effective, place-based responses. The new structure allows for greater integration across disciplines while retaining the flexibility to establish sub-groups for specific work areas as needed.
The board's full terms of reference will be updated following the inaugural meeting in September 2025 and posted here in due course.
Chair: Chris Henning, Derbyshire County Council ([email protected])
Secretary: Emma Hunt, Derbyshire County Council ([email protected])
