Ymchwil
Interests
My research focuses on using conceptual frameworks to better understand the instruments and operation of the statutory planning system. My research focuses primarily on the planning systems of the United Kingdom. Specific aspects of the planning system that I have worked on recently include strategic spatial planning and planning enforcement.
Projects
Neil has completed research for government, professional bodies, charities and campaigning organisations and has advised government on the planning system in Wales.
'A New Approach to Managing Development in Wales'.
This Welsh Government funded project explores the potential for change to the system of development management in Wales and will inform legislative change and the crafting of Wales's first planning act in 2015. The project is being completed with Arup and Liz Mills Associates and draws on comparative study of other planning systems.
'The detection and investigation of breaches of planning control'.
This pilot project is funded by Cardiff University and explores the role that members of the public play in supporting the planning enforcement functions of local planning authorities. The project draws on surveillance studies literature to explore citizen-engagement in the enforcement of planning controls.
'Small businesses and the planning system'.
This two-stage research project was funded by the Federation of Small Businesses. The Federation was concerned that the planning system in Wales was not meeting the needs of small businesses. The project reviewed national planning policies and explored small business applicants' experiences of the planning system. The project made recommendations for ensuring that the planning system was more suited to the needs of small businesses.
