The Town and Country Planning Order 2015 is a statutory instrument, applying in England, that grants planning permission for certain types of development.

What is considered permitted development?

Permitted development rights are a national grant of planning permission which allow certain building works and changes of use to be carried out without having to make a planning application. Permitted development rights are subject to conditions and limitations to control impacts and to protect local amenity.
