The East of England Plan is published by the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government. It covers the counties of Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire, Essex, Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire. Together with relevant sections of the Milton Keynes South Midlands Sub-Regional Strategy 2005, it constitutes the Regional Spatial Strategy (RSS) for the East of England.
Regional Spatial Strategies complement and generally do not repeat national planning policies, which are set out in Planning Policy Statements, circulars and other Government statements, including White Papers. They provide a consistent regional framework to inform the preparation of local development documents which must be in general conformity with RSS, local transport plans, and regional and sub-regional strategies and programmes with a bearing on land use activities. These include the regional housing, environment, health and social strategies produced by regional assemblies and their partners. It is a two-way relationship since the RSS should take account of those strategies and programmes. RSS policies may also be material to decisions on individual planning applications and appeals.
