Overlapping permissions: all you need to know about Hillside and Pilkington

This webinar will discuss the implications of the recent Court of Appeal judgment in the case of Hillside Parks Ltd v Snowdonia National Park Authority [2020] in terms of overlapping planning permissions and ‘Pilkington’ principles.

The session will review the existing case law, discuss the judgment and look at what it means for schemes where one or more planning permissions have ‘slotted in’ to part of an existing permission. The discussion will include practical tips for developers and LPAs on how to structure overlapping planning permissions to ensure an acceptable and workable position for both parties and how future developments in the law could be amended to provide greater clarity to this important area of planning and development.
