Appendix 12: Government Policy Guidance
Planning Policy Guidance notes (PPGs), the replacements for which, where published, are called Planning Policy Statements (PPSs), Minerals Policy Guidance notes (MPGs) and Regional Planning Guidance (RPG) (now called the Regional Spatial Strategy (RSS)) are the principal source of government policy guidance. The list comprises those in force as of November 2007, with an update to February 2008 regarding RPG/RSS. The regional guidance now forms part of the statutory development plan for Gateshead along with the Unitary Development Plan.
